Garage Support Technician - Dundee
Garage Support Technician – Electric Bus Maintenance
Location: Dundee (with operational-facing connection to Aberdeen, Livingston, and Inverness)
About the Role
Ember is the UK’s first all-electric coach company, operating across 15 routes—including Dundee to Glasgow, Inverness to Edinburgh, and Edinburgh to Fort William—with further expansions planned for 2026. We are also pioneering new charging hubs in Livingston and Glasgow to support our state-of-the-art, zero-emission fleet.
We’re seeking a reliable, hands-on Garage Support Technician to join our specialist electric bus maintenance team. This is an ever-growing, innovative challenge suited to practical-minded problem-solvers with an enthusiasm for electric vehicle (EV) technology. You won’t need to be a fully qualified mechanic, but you’ll collaborate closely with experts while contributing to ultra-efficient fleet maintenance—ensuring our buses, operated more intensively than any other EVs in the world, stay on the road with minimal downtime.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Training and all necessary resources will be provided, including access to tools, vehicles, and the latest software diagnostics.
What You’ll Do
As part of our twelve-strong maintenance team, you’ll be at the forefront of repairs and optimisation, balancing urgent fixes with preventative and root-cause analysis to reduce future issues. Since our operations are software-driven, you’ll need comfort with technological systems, remote diagnostics, and continuing learning.
- Leverage on-site problem-solving to address faults and restore schedule adherence
- Identify and mitigate risks via planned/unplanned maintenance to maximise uptime
- Collaborate with our in-house team (currently expanding) to refine EV maintenance practices
- Act as a reliability bridge, assisting between mechanical issues, software solutions, and logistics
What We Need
- Practical experience in garage/transport environments (training supplied for formal qualifications)
- Willingness to learn and follow direction from aluminium technical leads
- Physical stamina to manage a fast-paced workshop environment
- Strong commitment to Health & Safety in dynamic settings
- A responsible attitude (emptiness affecting routes directly)
- Proficiency in diagnosing vehicle systems (full induction provided)
- Full UK driving license (operating non-bus vehicles on site as required)

Why It Matters
Not only will you be a key part of driving the shift towards cleaner transport within Scotland, but you’ll also contribute to defining best practices for large-scale EV maintenance. This role is ideal if you’re a problem-solver who takes pride in hands-on work, and enjoy working on cutting-edge public transport tech.
