Workshop Controller
Basic Salary to £50,000
Luxury Vehicle Workshop
Southampton Area
"Excellence is in the details—lead with precision, deliver with pride."
The Opportunity
We're looking for a hands-on Workshop Manager to lead a close-knit team of 4–5 experienced technicians. This isn’t a clipboard-and-office role—it’s on the tools, in the workshop, leading by example. You’ll be overseeing daily operations, stepping into technical work when needed, and being the main point of contact for customers who expect the best.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Running the Workshop Day-to-Day: Assigning jobs, keeping everything moving smoothly, and making sure quality never slips.
* Working Alongside the Team: Getting involved in diagnostics, repairs, and servicing across a wide range of high-performance and specialist vehicles.
* Looking After Customers: Taking pride in clear, honest communication—explaining work, building trust, and ensuring a first-class experience.
* Upholding Standards: Making sure health & safety, tooling, and workshop cleanliness are maintained to a high standard.
* Improving Processes: Bringing fresh ideas to make things even slicker, smarter, and more efficient.
What We’re Looking For
* An experienced and qualified vehicle technician (minimum Level 3 or equivalent)
* Confident team leader who enjoys mentoring others
* Strong technical and diagnostic skills, ideally with high-performance or specialist marques
* Professional, approachable, and customer-focused
* A full, clean UK driving licence
What’s on Offer
* Competitive salary (circa £50k)
* Modern workshop environment with up-to-date equipment
* Autonomy to run the workshop your way, with full support from senior management
* A down-to-earth, no-nonsense culture where people care about what they do
* Holiday allowance, uniform, and opportunity for career development
This is a rare opportunity to lead a skilled team in a business that truly values expertise, quality, and pride in the job. If you love being on the tools, enjoy leading a team, and want to be part of something special—this one’s worth a look.
