We're looking for a Day Fitter to join our team here in Workington, looking after the fleet within our award winning Cumbria & North Lancashire Operating Company.

If that sounds like something you want to be involved in, we’d love to have you on board – and we’ll give you all the training and development you need to get to where you want to go!

Our Workington depot operates a varied range of vehicles from single deckers to double deckers. We operate vehicles from manufacturers such as Scania, Optare, Mercedes, MAN and Alexander Dennis.

You’ve probably seen some of our vehicles driving around Cumbria, transporting our fantastic customers around the area. Those customers rely on our services to get them to work, to the high street, to hospitals, to days away and nights out – and as part of our engineering team you’ll be a key part in making sure our vehicles are in tip top condition to do just that. It’s a really important role within our garage, so we’ll make sure you’re as looked after as our vehicles are!

You'll be set in good stead, currently possessing qualifications and experience – however, we’ll train you on everything else you need to know, and you’ll be supported by a great team of fellow Mechanics, Technicians, Stores people, Administrators and Engineering Managers who all pull together to do a brilliant job.

And interestingly it’s not all garage-based work – you could well find yourself out and about dealing with vehicle issues on the road, so it won’t always be the same four walls you’re looking at! A side from the reward of helping to deliver an incredible experience to our customers, there’s plenty more we can offer:

• 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!
• Safe Environment – we provide boots, overalls and specialist equipment so no need to worry about being safe and protected, or having the right kit for the job.
• Free bus travel – for you and a household member (this is a non-contractual benefit). That means on your days off (of which there are plenty!) you can be off shopping without worrying about parking the car,or heading off for a day in the Lakes without paying a fortune in fuel!
• Great Income & Benefits – plus a good pension scheme to look after you after you’ve hung up the spanner or multimeter!
• Promotions – if you’re happy sticking as a Day Fitter then that’s absolutely fine by us…but if you do want to progress we’ll support you every step of the way. You will be given exposure to work which will develop your skills and experience to allow you to progress your career further. The vast majority of our Engineering Managers and Directors are home grown talent – so that could very well be you in the not too distant future!

So, if you have an engineering background with a vehicular slant (truck, haulage, automotive, plant, rail, farm – if it moves, it’s good experience for working on buses) and have a passion for great work with a great team, then we can’t wait to receive your application!
