About the chance
This is a hands on leadership role with responsibility for safety, service delivery, team leadership, customer engagement and branch performance. You will lead a team of seven direct reports across technicians, parts and administration, while splitting your time between the office and workshop.

About you
You are a proven leader with trade-based technical credibility, you will know how to set expectations, hold people accountable and keep standards in place without losing sight of output, safety and customer needs.

What's on offer
This role gives you the chance to take charge of a branch. You will have scope to influence safety, service standards, team performance and customer outcomes. For someone who wants impact, the value here is clear: you will not be stepping into a maintenance role, but into a position where your decisions will shape branch performance and your results will be visible. You will also join a business with a national footprint, established product lines and a defined path beyond the branch.
The role offers a competitive salary, company vehicle, laptop and phone, along with structured onboarding and the support of a manager focused on removing operational roadblocks.
