This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Workshop Controller to join one of the UK’s leading vehicle rental specialists in our busy site in Stockport.

 

Your role, as Workshop Controller, is about supporting our customers to deliver on their business promises.  Your aim; ensuring we get their vehicle back on the road safely and in quick time.

 

Our Stockport branch is a large, high profile site with 1000 vehicles in fleet as well as being home to one of the busiest workshops in the country.  As the lead branch in the region, it also provides valuable support to Bolton and the South Manchester and Manchester City Centre side of the M60 Motorway. It is a busy, exciting place to be and you can be sure that you will not ever be looking for something to do.

With an ever-changing workload, our modern workshop is equipped with the latest technology and manufacturer-specific diagnostic tools - it is a bustling, exciting place to be.  You have a central role to play in the smooth running of the workshop by maximising the profitability, productivity and efficiency of the workshop team.  You are also the decision-maker for the technicians on recharge and warranty opportunities too.

Key to your success is your ability to ensure the workshop produces work that complies with the highest technical and quality standards and, above all, helps us deliver on our service commitment to customers.
