Workshop Manager – Gloucester/Cheltenham Region
  • Salary: Starting salary up to £46-50,000 per annum, pending experience.
  • Hours: 8:00am-5:30pm Monday to Friday.
  • Benefits: Fantastic career prospects with a long-established, multi-award-winning business operating since 1999.
Due to business expansion, our client, a multi-award-winning family-run independent service centre based in the Gloucester/Cheltenham region, is currently looking for a Workshop Manager to join their team. 

Reporting to the Business Owner and working alongside a service reception team, your key responsibilities as a Workshop Manager will include: 
  • Managing a team of 3/4 Vehicle Technicians and their schedules. 
  • Problem-solving and providing support in the workshop with complex technical issues. 
  • Monitoring the workshop and keeping customers informed of their vehicle's progress. 
  • Sourcing and supplying parts.
  • Competition of all relevant paperwork, including returns/credits and MOT administration.
  • Covering the service reception desk in a Service Advisor's absence. 
  • Going through work to be carried out on customers' vehicles and pricing the work accordingly.
  • Other general ad-hoc duties when required.
To be eligible, you will ideally have managed or held a supervisory role in a busy and successful automotive workshop, ideally including an MOT centre. As you will be required to provide support in the workshop with complex technical issues, you will need to demonstrate a high level of technical ability, either through a formal qualification or through demonstrating relevant "practical" experience as a Vehicle Technician over several years. Our client is also willing to consider highly qualified and experienced Vehicle Technicians looking to transition off the tools into a management role. You will also have great customer-facing experience, can lead from the front, and be able to energise, motivate and develop your team. IT literacy and a UK driving licence with minimal points are also essential.

Our client doesn’t want someone sat behind a desk pushing paper all day and is after someone who can roll up their sleeves and get involved in the gritty day-to-day running of a successful business. So, if this sounds like you, then get in touch!

For your hard work as a Workshop Manager, our client is offering:
  • Starting salary up to £46-50,000 per annum (negotiable pending experience).
  • 20 days' annual leave plus the 8 bank holidays.
  • Full in-house training and development.
  • Workplace pension scheme.
  • Fantastic career prospects with a long-established, multi-award-winning business.
  • Working hours from 8:00am to 5:30pm, Monday to Friday, with a half-hour lunch and two tea breaks.
