Based in the Lonsdale office, you'll take full ownership of day-to-day service operations — scheduling technicians, managing breakdown response, and ensuring every job is completed, reported, and closed out to a high standard.
You'll be coordinating a team of qualified technicians and apprentices, shared with the install/sales division — on any given day you'll typically be allocating 2 field staff to breakdown and general service work, so strong prioritisation and scheduling judgement is essential.
