Service Manager
We are recruiting an experienced Service Manager, on behalf of a well-established and growing specialist manufacturing business based in Witney, to lead its engineering and customer service function.
This is a hands-on leadership position where you'll take ownership of the day-to-day service operation, managing a team of engineers while ensuring customers across the UK and Europe receive an excellent level of technical support.

If you're an experienced service or engineering manager who enjoys being involved operationally, building strong customer relationships, and leading a team from the front, this could be an excellent opportunity.
