Manager Reg. Fleet Vehicles Portfolio

PMI has built a strong foundation for effective Cost Category Management to achieve our smart spending and sustainability ambitions. This foundation includes global spend visibility, clear cost ownership and governance processes, out-of-the-box thinking for new ways of working, and cross-functional collaboration between central functions and markets.

To lead PMI’s Cost Category Management, we established a Global CoE function, based in Madrid, with the primary objective to deliver cost optimization targets for PMI’s SG&A, oversee overall G&A costs evolution, and achieve our ambitious global fleet electrification goals as an enabler to keep reducing our CO2 emissions, while securing an excellent customer experience and employee engagement.

The primary role of the Regional Fleet Manager, reporting to the Senior Manager Global Fleet CoE, is to implement sustainable Fleet Management across assigned markets, contributing to environmental targets, reducing TCO, improving governance and maintaining employees' value perception. As a key member of the Fleet CoE, the role leads the deployment of Fleet Management as a Service (FMaaS) in his area, driving the standardization of Fleet Operations, adoption of digital solutions, and data-driven decision making, including the Fleet Management Tool and AI-enabled capabilities where relevant.
