The Opportunity
We have an exciting opportunity for a Regional Engineering Manager to lead engineering operations across Scotland. You will manage our depot and workshop engineering activity, support a geographically dispersed team of service engineers, and help ensure our equipment is safe, compliant, available, and ready for our customers.
This is a visible, hands-on regional role. You can be based anywhere in Scotland, with Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and Inverness all suitable locations. Regular travel across the region will be essential as you build strong relationships with depot teams, coach managers and engineers, and drive consistent standards.
What You'll Be Doing
- Lead a continuous improvement programme focused on safety, people, quality, productivity, and equipment availability.
- Manage and develop service engineers, Service Centre teams, and Workshop Managers across the region.
- Plan and allocate field service activity, balancing customer service levels, engineer availability, geography, and cost.
- Prioritise repair programmes so high-earning assets are returned to service quickly, safely, and in line with required service schedules.
- Maintain high standards of product quality and availability while supporting effective stock and cost control.
- Ensure compliance with Health & Safety, Quality Assurance, and statutory training requirements.
- Investigate major asset failures, identify trends, complete root cause analysis, and work with stakeholders to prevent recurrence.
- Respond to breakdowns, appoint the most appropriate engineer, and engage approved third parties where required.
- Oversee breakdown and service call logging, including the out-of-hours call-out rota.
- Support technical skills development, apprenticeships, and the continued development of Centres of Excellence.
