Basic Salary of £40,000+ Annual Bonus Scheme - £4,000-£8,000 Friendly, Supportive Family Run Garage Well Established, Expanding Business Beckenham Area Excellent pay, a supportive family-run business where you’ll be valued. This is a well-established family-run garage with a strong reputation for looking after its staff. Now they’re looking for an experienced Senior Service Advisor / Assistant Workshop Manager to join the team and provide some much-needed support when the Workshop Manager isn’t around.
It’s a properly varied role rather than a Service Advisor position where you’re stuck behind a reception desk. You’ll be involved across the workshop, parts and reception, helping keep the operation running smoothly on busy days and stepping up when needed.
Responsibilities
- Acting as Workshop Controller, coordinating jobs and keeping the workshop moving
- Dealing with customers and covering service reception
- Ordering and managing parts
- Supporting the workshop team with day-to-day organisation
- Providing cover and additional support when the Workshop Manager isn't on site
- Helping manage the workload during particularly busy periods
- Getting involved wherever you're needed to keep the garage running efficiently
There are three people within the team, so this is a hands-on position where you'll become an important part of the day-to-day operation.
Requirements
- Strong Service Advisor experience
- Experience within an independent garage
- A good understanding of workshop operations and parts
- Confidence coordinating workshop workloads
- The ability to deal with customers professionally
- A hands-on, adaptable approach
- The confidence to take responsibility when the Workshop Manager isn't there
If you're already a Senior Service Advisor or Workshop Controller, or you're an experienced Service Advisor ready to step up, this is a great opportunity to take on more responsibility without losing the variety that makes independent garages appealing.
Salary and Benefits
- £40,000+ basic salary
- £4,000–£8,000 annual bonus scheme
- Monday–Friday: 8am–6pm, 1-in-2 Saturdays: 8am–1pm
