Are you an experienced Vehicle Technician ready to take the next step into supervision?
This is a fantastic opportunity to combine your hands‑on skills with leadership in a well‑equipped workshop environment.
As Fleet Workshop Supervisor, you’ll split your time between:
* Working in the workshop: inspections, diagnostics, repairs, servicing and maintaining a diverse fleet (HGVs, LGVs, vans and plant) to DVSA standards.
* Managing other aspects such as service paperwork, compliance records, liaising with suppliers, developing staff, and working closely with our Fleet Workshop Administrator.
You’ll lead a small, friendly team of 3 technicians and 1 apprentice, running your own workshop day‑to‑day while keeping high standards of safety, service and fleet management.
Why Join Us?
* Progression built in – one of our current Workshop Managers started with us as an apprentice and worked their way up.
* A supportive team – it’s a well‑maintained workshop with a strong team spirit.
* Real variety – from diagnostics and repairs to managing suppliers and supporting an apprentice, no two days are the same.
* Stability & development – be part of a team that values your skills and gives you the chance to grow.
Testimonial from one of our Fleet Support Managers – "I joined Ubico as a Vehicle Apprentice in 2008 and advanced to the position of Vehicle Technician. From there, I took on the role of Workshop Supervisor and was promoted to Fleet Maintenance & Workshop Manager in 2024. During my time at Ubico, I have completed many qualifications, all these qualifications have equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to advance within the business. Ubico has supported me through training and mentoring to enhance my knowledge and skillset needed to progress to the next level in my career."
