Shift Technician - Preston

Stagecoach Merseyside & South Lancashire are currently looking to recruit HGV / PSV Technicians / Mechanics to join their team.

We believe our employees are our greatest assets to enable us to deliver excellent service to our customers. Our culture promotes training and development to help individuals reach their career goals, positive working relationships between staff and managers where ideas are valued. Superior workmanship and an eye for detail. The ability to work efficiently and effectively. The desire to succeed and be part of a winning team. If you have all of the above and more – then we want to speak to you.

At Stagecoach, we're offering you an exciting opportunity to play a crucial role in our Service & Workshop team at our Preston depot. As a Shift Technician, you'll be directly responsible for ensuring that vehicle repairs are carried out to the highest possible standard at this efficient and well equipped site. You'll be expected to have technical and practical competency when it comes to the repair and maintenance of PSV's, and you must be able to effectively communicate at all levels on a written and verbal basis. You should be flexible enough to adapt to new processes and develop new skills when required, and participate in training and development activities. We'll also expect you to be an active member of our busy team, while being competent enough to develop new working processes, or to enhance current ones.

We'll need you to:

· Ensure repairs are carried out according to manufacturer's procedures, safely and responsibly

· Assist in the fault diagnosis process

· Comply with warranty procedures during repairs and warranty material on completion of each repair

· Work with the Parts Team to ensure the correct replacement parts are fitted

· Assist with roadside breakdowns

· Keep all workshop facilities, equipment and tools clean, tidy and well maintained

· Wear personal protective equipment when appropriate

· Support the development of young trainees and apprentices

Who are you:

You'll hold a City and Guilds, an NVQ3 or an equivalent qualification. You'll also have completed an apprenticeship in the PSV / HGV industry, or have equivalent experience, along with relevant experience in the commercial vehicle industry.

A basic knowledge of computer software packages including Word, Excel and Outlook is preferred, as is a general level of computer literacy. Finally, we'd expect you to have a basic working knowledge of vehicle technology.

Aside from the reward of helping to deliver an incredible experience to our customers, there's plenty more we can offer:

  • Job security – we've been going since 1980, we turn over £1.3bn and we're not planning on hanging our boots up anytime soon
  • Free travel – for you and your companion on our buses. That means on your days off you can be off shopping for free without worrying about parking the car, or heading off for a day in the city without paying a fortune in petrol or train fares
  • A great regular income and great benefits – £42k per annum (4 over 7), plus a good pension scheme to look after you after you've hung up the spanner 
  • Promotions – perhaps you're happy sticking as a Master Technician and that's fine by us, but if you want to progress we'll support you every step of the way. You will be given exposure to work which will develop your skills and experience to allow you to progress your career further.  Many of our Stagecoach Merseyside, Cheshire & South Lancashire Engineering Managers started off as Master Technicians – so that could very well be you in the not too distant future
  • Training – a dedicated high level training programme to reinforce the skills you already have and an opportunity to gain a qualification in another trade

When you join us, you'll be assigned a training path, enabling you to work through a number of courses both online and in person to develop your skills and support you in your new role. So, if you're genuinely excited by what we have on offer and know that you can further strengthen the Stagecoach engineering team to make it even more of a success, then don't hesitate to get in touch with us.

Stagecoach workplace culture is one where everyone can be themselves and where all the differences our people bring to the business are celebrated. We welcome applications from all, irrespective of background, gender, ethnicity, race, religion, beliefs, disability, neurodiversity, sexual orientation or age.

Stagecoach is proudly an inclusive employer, striving for a culture where everyone can be themselves and where all the differences people bring are truly appreciated. We welcome applications from all, irrespective of gender, ethnicity, race, religion, beliefs, disability, neurodiversity, sexual orientation, or age.
