Automotive Business

We're currently recruiting on behalf of a well-established, family-run automotive business that prides itself on its reputation, customer service and supportive working environment.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced aftersales leader ready to step up, or an aftersales professional looking for a role with real responsibility and an outstanding work-life balance.

The business operates with a close-knit team, including: 2 members of staff within the service administration function | 6 technicians within the workshop

This role offers plenty of variety and the opportunity to become involved in all aspects of the operation.

What We're Looking For

Previous experience within an automotive service department

Strong customer service and communication skills

Excellent organisational and time management abilities

A proactive approach and willingness to get involved where needed

Experience managing workshop operations or service teams would be advantageous

Someone who enjoys working within a family business environment where relationships and reputation matter

What's on Offer?

£38,000 - £40,000 basic salary

Monday to Friday working hours (No weekend work!)

Friendly, supportive family-run business

Stable and secure long-term opportunity

Genuine autonomy and the chance to become a key member of the management team

If you're looking for a Service Manager role where your contribution will be valued and where you'll enjoy a healthy work-life balance, we'd love to hear from you.

Who are you applying to?

The Solution Automotive Recruitment have been placing candidates into the UK Motor Trade since 1999. We have a fantastic relationship with all our clients and candidates across the country, many very long standing relationships. If you are skilled and experienced Automotive candidate, we want to hear from you and rest assured, you'll be dealing with a person, not just a consultant!
