As one of the largest and fastest-growing powered access companies in the UK, AFI-Rentals builds success by nurturing talent and rewarding hard work. If you are looking for a fast-paced and rewarding career, we'd love to hear from you.
We are currently looking to recruit a Hire Desk Controller to work from our GAP Implant depot based in Glasgow.
About You
The successful applicant will possess the core qualities that we pride ourselves on, such as being customer-focused, a good communicator, being organised, valuing teamwork, being reliable, and having a willingness to learn.
If you possess these character traits, then you could be exactly the person we’re looking for. Experience in a rental or a service-related industry may be advantageous but is definitely not essential.

* Proactively chasing GAP depots for hires.
* Checking the availability of machines and ensuring that order status is always up to date on our systems.
* Coordinating with the engineering and transport teams to ensure that the correct machines are ready and available to be delivered to customer sites.
* Dealing with customer queries, complaints, and damages professionally and politely at all times and maximising sales using your product knowledge.
* Maintaining health and safety standards within the hire office.
* Communicating effectively with other colleagues and providing a helpful and friendly point of contact for depot enquiries.
Minimum Requirements
* Previous experience in a customer-focused role is a must, as is attention to detail when processing information into our hire system.
* A good knowledge of Microsoft packages and computer skills in general.
* You must be outgoing and enthusiastic.
* As this is a customer-facing role, excellent communication skills and a friendly approach are a must.
* Timekeeping and using your initiative will be important aspects of the role, so you should be proficient in these skills.
* Experience working on a hire desk would be a distinct advantage.
