Job description

Up to £26,000 | Full-Time | Office-Based

No two days the same. That's exactly the point.

At Compco, our engineers are out on the road every single day, servicing fire pumps and critical safety systems that businesses depend on. Behind every one of those visits is a Scheduler who made it happen: the right engineer, the right site, the right kit, at the right time.

You'll take ownership of planning and coordinating engineer workloads across your patch, building efficient routes, keeping our internal scheduler app up to date, and making sure every visit is fully equipped, from risk assessments and insurance documents to work permits and materials.

You'll join a genuinely close-knit team. Our scheduling and admin department is a tight team of 5, sitting within a wider office of 14. Many of our people have been with us for years and that says everything about the culture we've built.

We invest in you from day one. You'll get proper, structured internal training on our systems, our industry, and our way of working. We want you to feel confident, capable, and set up to grow. Many of our employees have developed careers with us through promotions and internal role changes offering progression and skills expansion.

Every day brings a genuine challenge. This isn't a role where you follow the same script on repeat. Plans change. Urgent jobs land. Routes need rethinking on the fly. You'll be the person solving it and there's real satisfaction in getting engineers where they need to be, exactly when they're needed.

Duties

• Plan and schedule engineer diaries and routes, mapping journeys for maximum efficiency and minimum drive time
• Log and maintain accurate job records across our internal database and scheduler app
• Check, verify and process completed works ready for invoicing
• Raise subcontractor purchase orders for work carried out
• Schedule all service/maintenance visits
• Prepare materials, risk statements, insurance documents and work permits ahead of every visit
• Keep in close, constant contact with engineers to make sure they're on-site, on-time, and fully equipped
• Reconcile paperwork and timesheets
• Source and present data reports

About You

You're highly organised capable of keeping multiple deadlines and moving parts in your head at once and still keep your cool. You're comfortable planning realistic job lengths and mapping efficient routes and you know how to reprioritise fast when something unexpected lands on your desk.

You’ll need:

• Proven experience in an administration role
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to work to tight deadlines
• The flexibility to work as part of a team and use your own initiative
• Good verbal and written communication skills
• Strong proficiency across Microsoft Office

It would be great if you also had:

• Previous scheduling experience within a similar or service-based industry
• A background in a service environment where reactive, fast-paced coordination was part of the day-to-day

• 33 days holiday (inc of Bank Holidays)
• Additional day off to celebrate your birthday how you wish
• Optional private medical insurance, after probation completion
• Life assurance (2 x annual salary) with effect from your start date
• Cycle to work scheme
• Income Protection Policy after 5 years' service
• Long Service Awards after 5,10, 15, 20 and 25 years' service
• Perkbox discounts and recognition scheme
• Enhanced Family Friendly packages (Maternity & Paternity)
