Support installation and commissioning of add-on systems and safety equipment; liaise with engineering or digital teams as necessary to verify operation.
Complete accurate job cards, service records and defect reports using internal systems to ensure compliance and traceability.
Order and manage replacement parts and consumables, maintain stock levels and report shortages to the Workshop Supervisor.
Prepare machines for hire in conjunction with depot teams, ensuring safety checks are completed and any outstanding issues are communicated.
Comply with all health, safety and environmental regulations; maintain a clean and organised workshop and ensure safe use of tools and equipment.
Assist with vehicle and plant recoveries as required and provide support to mobile engineers during on-site repairs.
