Norwich, United Kingdom Serco Plc Full time

Aylsham, Norfolk, NR11 6SU
Salary - up to £42,500

Our waste and recycling services enable local authorities to deliver reliable waste management services, with over 200,000 tons of waste recycled every year. And one of the most important parts of the team our are vehicle mechanics, who ensure that our HGV refuse trucks and street cleansing vehicles can keep our community clean, green and safe for all residents and businesses.

Joining our friendly team as a Supervisor will see you undertake training for your Transport Manager CPC, ensuring that our fleet of refuse trucks are maintained, serviced and managed appropriately and overseeing a small team of Mechanics on a day to day basis. They might not be the most glamorous vehicles, but you’ll go home each day knowing you’ll have contributed to your local community.

In addition to this, you will manage the vehicle maintenance delivery including costs and carrying out quality checks, manage the vehicle budget to ensure that maintenance and spares expenditure is controlled and review the Workshop efficiency, implementing improvements to the service wherever possible and necessary, as well as accurately record all vehicle accidents, incidents and MOT results are accurately recorded and reported.

This role will also see you attend regional monthly review meetings, work closely with the Fleet Manager and National Workshop Manager to develop and manage the Mechanical Apprenticeship programme, in addition to monitoring staffing levels and rotas, ensuring all Company Policies and Directives relating to Road Transport and Dangerous Goods, including Animal by-products are fully complied with and that the legislative obligations of the Operator’s Licence/s are fully complied with..

You won’t be doing this alone either. Our team is made up of professional and supportive teammates, including managers who began their careers with Serco as mechanics and have worked their way up to Supervisor, Fleet Manager and Regional Manager positions.

As such, we are dedicated to the ongoing development and progression of our mechanic teams, with outstanding training along opportunities to undertake additional qualifications, including Management Training courses, Transport Manager CPC, HGV Driver training, IOSSH training and Irtec accreditation.

We will support you in realising your career goals within Serco.

About you

First and foremost, you’ll need to be an experienced and fully qualified mechanic - preferably with HGV mechanic experience, or be willing to undertake additional training to upskill.

You should have good written and verbal communication skills, be able to undertake all aspects of vehicle maintenance and repair, and general welding skills would be advantageous.

Previous supervisory experience is not essential for this role, we are happy to develop your skills where required.
All we ask if that you are ambitious and have a good understanding of UK and EU road transport legislation, including Goods MoT requirements and Construction and Use regulations.

At times you may be required to go off site to attend to vehicles that have broken down, so it is essential that you hold a full UK driving licence.
