About Zenith
For more than 30 years, Zenith has been helping organisations move further, smarter and more sustainably. As the UK's leading independent leasing, fleet management and vehicle solutions provider, we manage almost 170,000 vehicles across our corporate, commercial and salary sacrifice businesses.
Behind every successful fleet is a maintenance operation that keeps vehicles moving, controls costs and delivers for customers. That's where our Commercial Maintenance & Risk team comes in. Working with some of the UK's largest fleet operators, the team reviews, challenges and authorises thousands of repairs every year, helping customers stay compliant, minimise vehicle downtime and maximise value from their maintenance contracts.
What's the Role?
We're looking for a Maintenance Supervisor to lead a team of Maintenance Controllers responsible for reviewing, challenging and authorising repairs across HGV, trailer and LCV fleets.
This role is ideal for someone with a workshop, service or fleet engineering background who enjoys developing people, solving technical challenges and making commercially sound decisions. You'll be the first point of escalation for complex repairs, support your team with technical guidance and play a key role in balancing customer service, vehicle availability and cost control.
It's an opportunity to move beyond day-to-day maintenance operations and build broader leadership, commercial and stakeholder management experience within a growing area of the business.
