Senior Fleet Expertise On-Demand — Without the Full-Time Hire
Position Shahzeb as your virtual Fleet Director. Monthly reviews, vendor guidance, strategic input, and direct access when decisions need to be made fast.
A senior Fleet Manager in the UAE costs AED 18,000–30,000/month plus benefits, visa, and overhead. For SMEs with 15–150 vehicle fleets, that doesn't make sense. A retainer with Shahzeb gives you the same strategic expertise, the same decision-making support, and the same vendor network — at a fraction of the cost, with no employment overhead.
What's Included
Monthly fleet KPI review and written performance report
Vendor and contract advisory as required (maintenance, fuel, tyres, insurance, software)
Incident response support — guidance when something goes wrong
Budget planning input and cost oversight across spend categories
Monthly 60-minute strategy call with written action items
Direct WhatsApp access for urgent questions (response within business hours)
Quarterly strategic review (every 3 months): full fleet health assessment

Who This Is For
SMEs and mid-market companies with 15–150 vehicle fleets that need senior fleet expertise without a permanent hire. Ideal for businesses growing fast, managing costs, or with a fleet manager leaving who hasn't been replaced.
“We replaced a full-time Fleet Manager role with Shahzeb's retainer and saved AED 240,000 annually while actually improving our fleet performance metrics.”

Common Questions
What if I need more support in a particular month?
Additional hours can be added at a pre-agreed day rate. This is flagged in advance so there are no surprise invoices.
Can I exit the retainer before 3 months?
The minimum is 3 months. After that, 30 days notice. The 3-month minimum ensures enough time to establish rhythm and deliver measurable value.
Do you visit our site or is this fully remote?
The retainer is primarily remote. On-site visits can be arranged separately for specific needs (audits, driver training, vendor meetings) — quoted case by case.
