Provide technical guidance and troubleshooting assistance for service and reactive maintenance works.
Review engineer reports and identify appropriate remedial actions.
Coordinate and oversee service, maintenance and reactive works scheduling.
Monitor engineer workloads to ensure efficient service delivery and contractual compliance.

Identify additional revenue opportunities from service visits and engineer reports.
Support the planning, costing and delivery of larger air conditioning projects.
Source and manage subcontract labour where required.
Liaise with manufacturers and suppliers regarding technical matters, parts availability, lead times and pricing.
Ensure planned preventative maintenance (PPM) schedules are effectively managed and delivered.
Maintain compliance with relevant industry standards, certifications and accreditations.

The Ideal Candidate

We are seeking a hands-on manager who combines strong technical expertise with commercial awareness.

The successful candidate will be confident making operational and commercial decisions, capable of building relationships across the business, and motivated by the opportunity to help shape and grow a successful air conditioning service function.
