Dartford Area

A family-run independent garage in the Dartford area is expanding, and they're looking for a strong Workshop Controller to help take the business to the next level.

This isn't just another workshop job. The right person will have the opportunity to make their mark on an expanding business, take real ownership of the workshop operation and, in time, potentially progress into running the business itself.

You'll be joining a business that understands the importance of looking after its people. Expect a welcoming working environment, a team that pulls together and a package that gives you a great reason to make the move.

Responsibilities

• Take control of the workshop operation, managing daily workflow and ensuring technicians are working efficiently.
• Allocate jobs, monitor progress and keep the workshop running smoothly throughout the day.
• Lead and support the team, maintaining high standards of productivity and workmanship.
• Work closely with the service team to ensure jobs are completed efficiently and customer expectations are met.
• Identify opportunities to improve workshop performance as the business continues to grow.
• Take an active role in the future of the business, with the potential to move into a position running the operation.

Requirements

• Someone who knows how to run a workshop, bring a team together and get the best out of the people around them.
• You'll ideally have experience as a Workshop Controller or Workshop Manager, understand the demands of a busy automotive environment and be ready to take on a role where your input genuinely matters.
• Most importantly, you'll want more than simply turning up, managing the workload and going home. You'll want to help build something and have the ambition to take your career further.

Salary and Benefits

• £40,000–£50,000 salary, depending on experience.
• Monday to Friday, 8:00am–5:30pm.
• No weekend working.
• Christmas shutdown between Christmas and New Year.
• A family-run business with a reputation for treating its people well.
• A positive working environment where you're trusted to do your job and make a difference.
• A genuine opportunity to progress into running the business as it continues to expand.

The Bottom Line

£40,000–£50,000, no weekends, a Christmas shutdown and the chance to progress from Workshop Controller into running an expanding business.

If you've got the experience to run a workshop and the ambition to take the next step, this is an opportunity to look at seriously.
