The Business
NEOS Engineering Recruitment are partnered with a well-established and highly respected name in the plant and equipment hire sector. This is a business known for reliability, strong customer relationships, and a tight-knit, high-performing team. Their Liverpool operation is a key hub, and they're now looking to bring in a Senior Hire Controller to play a pivotal role in keeping operations running smoothly and efficiently.
The Role
This is not your standard hire desk role.
You'll be at the centre of operations — coordinating plant, transport, and customer requirements while supporting and leading from the front within a busy, fast-paced depot.
Key responsibilities include:
* Managing the day-to-day running of the hire desk
* Coordinating transport and logistics for plant, generators, and accommodation units
* Maximising utilisation and ensuring efficient allocation of equipment
* Building strong relationships with customers and internal teams
* Supporting and guiding junior team members where required
* Handling queries, problem-solving, and ensuring a high level of service delivery
* Working closely with the depot and operations teams to keep everything moving
The Candidate
We're looking for someone with energy, drive, and presence - someone who can step into a senior position and make an impact from day one.
Ideal background:
* Strong experience within a plant hire / equipment hire / generator hire environment
* Proven experience coordinating transport and deliveries
* Experience in a senior, supervisory, or managerial role (or ready to step up)
* A proactive mindset — someone who takes ownership and gets things done
* Strong communication skills and the ability to thrive in a close-knit, fast-paced team
* Stable work history — we're looking for consistency and commitment
This role would suit someone currently managing a smaller operation or senior hire controller looking to step into a more influential position.
Why This Role?
* Join a high-performing, tight-knit team where culture matters
* Opportunity to step into a senior position with real responsibility
* Work with a business that values efficiency, teamwork, and attitude
* Clear opportunity to make your mark within a growing operation
