  • Submitting daily timesheets and job cards
  • Accurately ordering your parts and working closely with the parts department
  • Working closely with the service supervisor
  • Ensuring that there is no deficiency or defect likely to affect the safe working of a machine – and notifying appropriate manager of any defective or unsafe equipment
