With deep engineering knowledge, a future-focused mindset, and an unrivalled approach to service, we help public and private sector operators unlock the full potential of their fleets.

Our workshop and aftersales operations play a critical role in ensuring vehicles are prepared, repaired, maintained and presented to the highest standards. As our business continues to grow, we are looking to strengthen our workshop team with practical, motivated and quality-focused individuals.

The Role

As a Workshop Technician, you will support the preparation, inspection, repair and presentation of minibuses, buses and specialist passenger transport vehicles within our Southwater workshop facility.

This is a hands-on workshop-based role suited to candidates with practical experience in vehicle preparation, repair, coachbuilding, conversion, commercial vehicles or multi-skilled workshop environments.

The role requires strong attention to detail, a positive attitude, and the ability to work effectively within a busy and fast-paced workshop operation

As a Workshop Technician your role will include, but not be limited to, the following:

• Carry out vehicle PDI preparation and de-snagging activities.
• Carry out vehicle scheduled servicing and routine maintenance activities.
• Complete workshop repairs and rectification work as directed.
• Assist with workshop servicing, inspection and repair activities in line with manufacturer and company standards.
• Assist with minor mechanical, electrical and trim-related repairs.
• Install and replace vehicle accessories, fittings and components.
• Prepare vehicles for customer delivery and handover.
• Support diagnostic and fault-finding procedures using workshop equipment and software, and report issues to management.
• Follow manufacturer repair methods and workshop procedures.
• Use workshop tools, lifting equipment and PPE safely and correctly.
• Support workshop efficiency and daily operational requirements.
• Liaise with Parts and Aftersales departments regarding repair requirements and parts usage.
• Complete job cards and workshop records accurately.
• Assist with vehicle movements within the workshop and yard areas as required.
• Carry out quality inspections on completed work.
• Maintain a clean, safe and organised workshop environment.
• Ensure all work is completed in line with company quality and health & safety standards.

Performance will be measured against agreed KPIs including vehicle quality standards, workshop efficiency, completion times, attendance, housekeeping standards and overall contribution to workshop operations.

You will be expected to work closely with Workshop Control, Parts, Aftersales and Management teams to support the efficient operation of the workshop and delivery of vehicles to customers.
