Workshop Supervisor

Workshop Supervisor
Your guidance and savvy knowledge will be critical in helping the workshop achieve their objectives.
This is a role for a senior and responsible Technician who is looking to take their career to the next level.

Your Remit
You will be tasked with ensuring your customers receive the highest levels of professionalism. Your remit will be to oversee the day-to-day activity and ensure that jobs are allocated via a card system to the Vehicle Engineers. You will be mentoring Technicians on the company's outstanding fleet of high spec municipal vehicles, so current mechanical experience is still very much required for the role.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Making sure that the work has been carried out to the correct specifications and within the time frames.
2. Liaising with the Parts Department to ensure the correct equipment is being used to carry out the repairs.
3. Managing a team of skilled Fitters looking after a mix of Diesel, hybrid, and fully electric vehicles.

This role would suit someone who has experience working in a similar role within a HGV or Council Fleet workshop environment and has experience managing people while liaising with internal and external stakeholders. It is critical that you have very good people skills, as you will be working in a high-pressured environment, requiring a cool head at all times.

The type of vehicles worked on range from heavy goods vehicles (HGV's), road tankers, gritters, RCV's (Refuse Collection Vehicles), and road sweepers. Ideally, you will be fully qualified (City & Guilds, NVQ, or equivalent). It is also important that you are accustomed to vehicle transaction systems and have solid IT skills.
