Consulo are proud recruitment partners to a globally respected engineering group operating at the forefront of power transmission, hydraulics and drive technologies. From bespoke hydraulic systems and industrial gearboxes to complete service and repair solutions, their name is synonymous with quality and reliability.
The Warrington facility is a key UK site – a well-equipped workshop supporting customers across energy, manufacturing and heavy industry. The team here takes genuine pride in what they do, combining hands-on technical skill with a strong sense of teamwork and service excellence.
The Role
We’re looking for a hands-on Workshop Supervisor to take day-to-day leadership of a team of six experienced fitters and technicians. You’ll plan and oversee repair, rebuild and test work on gearboxes, hydraulic systems and rotating equipment – ensuring jobs are completed safely, efficiently and to a high standard.
This is very much a working leadership role: you’ll still be involved in strip-downs, inspections and assemblies yourself, but also set the pace, organise workloads and support the wider service operation.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Oversee the daily running of the workshop, allocating jobs and monitoring progress
* Lead by example on mechanical and hydraulic builds, strip-downs and testing
* Maintain high standards of safety, quality and housekeeping across the shop floor
* Liaise with engineering and service teams to plan work schedules and resolve technical issues
* Support, mentor and motivate a small team to deliver consistent performance
* Identify opportunities to improve workshop layout, tooling and processes
* Ensure documentation, reports and job tracking are accurately maintained
What We’re Looking For
* Time-served mechanical or hydraulic engineer with proven experience in a workshop or service centre environment
* Previous background as a Workshop Supervisor, Team Leader, Lead Fitter or Senior Technician
* Strong practical knowledge of gearboxes, transmissions, pumps, or hydraulic power units
* Confident reading engineering drawings and carrying out mechanical fault-finding and rebuild work
* A natural organiser with good communication skills and a proactive approach
* Someone who takes pride in doing the job right and enjoys developing others around them
This is a full time position based in Warrington.
