Are you ready to step into a high-impact leadership role where you don’t just manage from behind a desk — you lead from the front?

This is not a traditional management job. This is a hands-on Player-Coach role where you will be out in the field, driving alongside your team, setting the pace, solving problems in real time, and ensuring every shift runs safely and efficiently.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love operational leadership, and believe great leaders lead by example, this opportunity is for you.

SkyHop Global operates 24/7/365, supporting airline crews across the country. Our leaders must be agile, decisive, and ready to jump into action at a moment’s notice. If you’re looking for a predictable desk job, this isn’t it. But if you want an exciting leadership role with strong support, growth opportunity, and the ability to make a real impact daily — let’s talk.

We are seeking a driven leader known for strong execution, quick thinking, and a roll-up-your-sleeves work ethic. You will earn your team’s respect by demonstrating integrity, accountability, and a commitment to safety and service excellence.

What This Role Looks Like (Typical Day)

Lead, coach, and motivate a team of 25–30 drivers to ensure safe, efficient, and on-time operations
