  • Strong diagnostic and fault-finding skills.
  • Experience maintaining HGVs and specialist fleet vehicles such as tippers, road sweepers or similar.
  • Good understanding of DVSA regulations and operator licence compliance.
  • Excellent organisational and planning skills.
  • The ability to motivate, develop and support a workshop team.
  • A proactive approach to reducing downtime and improving fleet reliability.
  • Experience using workshop management or fleet maintenance systems would be advantageous.
  • Full UK driving licence
What's On Offer for the Group Workshop Manager
  • £60,000 - £70,000 depending on experience.
  • Company van.
  • A varied role combining hands-on engineering with workshop leadership.
  • The opportunity to play a key role in maintaining and developing a busy commercial vehicle fleet.
