This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced & qualified Workshop Controller to join one of the UK’s leading vehicle rental specialists in our Exeter branch. Your role as Workshop Controller is about supporting our customers to deliver on their business promises, ensuring we get their vehicle back on the road safely and in quick time.
With an ever-changing workload, our modern workshop is equipped with the latest technology and manufacturer-specific diagnostic tools. You have a central role to play in the smooth running of the workshop by maximizing the profitability, productivity, and efficiency of the workshop team. You are also the decision-maker for the technicians on recharge and warranty opportunities.
Key to your success is your ability to ensure the workshop produces work that complies with the highest technical and quality standards and helps us deliver on our service commitment to customers.
About You
* You are a qualified technician with a solid workshop background - your colleagues value your technical knowledge and understanding of jobs from routine servicing and maintenance to more complex diagnostics.
* You have a common-sense business approach - you know what makes a great workshop and how to maximize efficiencies and opportunities to produce outstanding results.
* Above all, you are a people person - you care about those around you and understand that a one-size-fits-all approach is not always the best way to create a high-performing workshop team.
* You get involved in every part of our business – you take pride in being part of the Northgate team and are keen to help colleagues with a hands-on, can-do approach to getting things done.
* You have a passion for customer service - you understand what is important to your customers and suppliers. If there is an issue, as Workshop Controller, you will know just how to solve it.
