The Vacancy
About this Role
Are you a Customer Service Executive looking for your next opportunity in the truck and trailer industry, or do you have experience in customer service, fleet operations or transport administration? Dawsongroup Truck and Trailer is looking for someone who can combine excellent customer service with practical fleet coordination to keep vehicles ready for hire and customers moving.
- Inspect trucks and trailers on check-in and check-out, recording damage accurately and ensuring vehicles meet required safety, legal and presentation standards.
- Coordinate servicing, MOT tests, planned maintenance and repairs, working with internal teams and external repair agents to minimise vehicle downtime.
- Communicate with customers about damage, maintenance requirements and vehicle availability, handling recharges professionally and diplomatically.
- Manage rental agreements, customer invoicing, driver records and tachograph compliance, maintaining accurate documentation.
- Organise vehicle deliveries and collections, prioritise pre-booked vehicles and maintain appropriate stocks of frequently used spares.
About You
You'll be organised, customer-focused and comfortable balancing administration with practical, hands-on fleet responsibilities. You will need a full, valid UK driving licence, but you do not need to tick every box to be considered.
- Experience in customer service or a similar environment, with the confidence to handle enquiries and resolve issues professionally.
- Good written and verbal communication skills, alongside confidence using Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel and Outlook.
- A methodical approach to inspections, record keeping and coordinating competing priorities.
- The ability to carry out routine cleaning and maintenance and inspect trucks and trailers as required.
- Knowledge of asset rental, transport or distribution would be advantageous, but transferable skills and the willingness to learn are equally welcome.

- Work within a business that values integrity, safety, legal compliance and continuous improvement.
