Life as a Team Leader with Northgate Vehicle Hire

You have a real talent for creating productive, engaged teams where everyone works together to get things done well and on time. With your team of Customer Delivery Agents on board, it's over to you inspire the team and take ownership for the allocation and utilisation of the fleet at your site, getting the right vehicles to the right customers, just when they need it.

Being a successful Team Leader in branch is really about using your customer service know-how, talent for motivating others and your calm, 'can-do' attitude to get your team pulling in the same direction.
