You'll spend most of your time on the tools—diagnosing, servicing, and repairing a range of commercial trucks and trailers —while guiding a small, tight-knit team of about five collaborative, high-integrity blokes who pitch in across tasks and get the job done together. You'll own the daily rhythm: pre-planning jobs the evening before, greeting customers first thing, directing workflow with clear, confident leadership, handling basic electrical fault-finding (with specialist support nearby), and keeping the workshop moving smoothly in a straightforward, no-nonsense culture built on mutual support and ambition. This is your chance to step up and grow with a steadily expanding local business that backs its people with training and real progression opportunities as it adds services and grows further.
