To Be Agreed

Are you ready to take your career up a gear?

We’re on the lookout for a Workshop Manager to join us at Stagecoach Preston where we operate a fleet of around 126 buses.

As Workshop Manager, you’ll be ready to roll your sleeves up for a rewarding role that doesn’t just help people get from A to B – you help communities stay connected.

Your contribution could truly drive our business forward.

What you’ll do:

You will ensure that daily service targets are met, and all maintenance tasks are completed to exacting standards.

• Through first-line supervision, you will control daily workshop loading, monitor H&S practices and ensure buses are in top condition for our customers.
• You will communicate targets and action plans to staff each day via briefing sessions with the emphasis on improved reliability.
• You will also be responsible for the safe and efficient maintenance; ensuring premises are secure, cleaned and safe for staff and visitors.

What we need from you:

A firm technical knowledge is key, as you will be first port of call to assist our teams diagnosing and rectifying complex issues.

The role demands someone with energy, enthusiasm and the ability to motivate staff to meet the targets and the high standards we set for the maintenance and cleaning of our buses and to ensure that they are available for the deadlines required for the daily operation of our bus services.

You should possess an appropriate professional engineering qualification, have an eye for detail and have a passion for continuous improvement.

Why work with us:

• Job security – we’ve been going since 1980, we turn over £1.3bn and we’re not planning on hanging our boots up anytime soon!
• Free travel – for you and your companion on our buses. That means on your days off you can be off shopping for free without worrying about parking the car, or heading off for a day in the city without paying a fortune in petrol or train fares!
• A great regular income and great benefits – £45,251 per annum
• Plus a good pension scheme to look after you after you’ve hung up your tools.

Stagecoach workplace culture is one where everyone can be themselves and where all the differences our people bring to the business are celebrated.
