Fleet Development Project Manager

Yango is a rapidly growing ride-hail platform that forms an international arm of Yandex Taxi. We have leading positions across the countries where we have a presence, especially in Africa. As the ride-hail industry in emerging and frontier markets is following a tremendous growth trajectory, Yango is set to become the leading platform there.

You will be part of a new but quickly growing fleet development team. Responsibilities range greatly from direct negotiations with vehicle manufacturers to facilitating financing for fleet partners to developing existing and new partners and helping them build their fleets. There are a number of distinct business verticals you can lead and own.

• Coordinate and lead multiple fleet building projects (everything from helping existing partners to growing the business to establishing better vehicle procurement channels with manufacturers)
• Work with the head of fleet management to find financing for partners in multiple countries
• Lead projects to source, educate, and enroll new partners and investors

• 3+ years of experience in business development and strong business acumen
• Experience in fleet management, carsharing, car finance, and leasing
• Entrepreneurial bent as someone willing to take on new challenges and drive exciting projects
• Willingness to work in the fast-paced environment of a “to the moon” startup with real responsibility and the opportunity to make a difference
• Well-developed project management skills for managing internal and external stakeholders from all over the world
• Easy communication skills for both high-level meetings and field work (you might meet a multi-million potential investor and a couple hours later be talking with a small local partner about how to expand their business)
