I want to transition into fuel operations and equipment support where I can maintain POS/fueling infrastructure, coordinate vendors, and lead multi-site improvements. I’m looking for a team that values hands-on technical responsibility and measurable growth.
Brian Gleason
@briangleason
I’m an operations-focused fuel retail manager who drives growth and supports POS and fuel equipment across multiple sites.
What I'm looking for
I bring 10+ years of multi-site convenience store and petroleum retail management experience, combining day-to-day operations with hands-on technical expertise. As a Store Manager, I oversee a high-volume site serving 500–700+ customers per day and selling 1,300–2,000 gallons of fuel daily, while also leading a deli operation that generates upwards of $1,500–$1,700 in daily sales.
I’ve built and developed teams of 7–8 employees through hiring, onboarding, scheduling, and supervision, and I drive consistent year-over-year improvement in revenue and operational metrics. I’m also the site’s primary point of contact for POS configuration, fueling equipment troubleshooting, and vendor coordination—using tools like Verifone Commander, PriScan, and Veeder-Root ATG—and I’ve supported multiple locations through DCR/register replacements, card terminal swaps, fuel nozzle and breakaway replacements, and underground tank probe reinstallation.
