We need you!!
If you love being a multi-skilled vehicle technician but you’re thinking “I fancy a change”, “I want more variety” or “I want to work in a team”, then we may just have exactly what you’re looking for!
You’ve probably seen some of our 182 vehicles driving around the Royal Borough of Greenwich, transporting our fantastic customers across outer London.
Those customers rely on our services to get them to work, to the high street, to hospitals, to days away and nights out – and as part of our engineering team you’ll be a key part in making sure our vehicles are in tip top condition to do just that. It’s a really important role within our depot, so we’ll make sure you’re as looked after as our vehicles are!
You’ll have the responsibility for maintaining and repairing our fleet of 182 buses. Our buses include Dennis, Volvo and Scania and thus there’s some state of the art vehicles to work on. There are also some new electric buses in the fleet.
You need to have worked on buses before and be able to:
- undertake routine, preventative maintenance in accordance with Company maintenance schedules.
- undertake diagnostic investigations on reported vehicle defects including engines, fuel systems, turbos, air, hydraulic and ABS/EBS braking systems using laptops and other test equipment and to identify faults and carry out repairs where practical to do so.
- service and repair wheelchair ramps from various manufacturers.
- undertake mechanical/electrical and bodywork tasks as necessary in order to facilitate repairs.
- action repairs and test repairs have been effective.
- keep abreast of technical developments and new equipment introduced.
- assist in the technical training of mechanical/electrical apprentices.
- assisting management in reviewing vehicle reliability statistics and formulating a maintenance strategy to improve vehicle reliability.
You’ll be supported by a great team of fellow Electricians, Mechanics, Technicians, Storespeople, Administrators and Engineering Managers who all pull together to do a brilliant job.
And it’s not all garage-based work. You could find yourself out and about dealing with vehicle issues on the road, so it won’t always be the same four walls you’re looking at!
Aside from the reward of helping to deliver an incredible experience to our customers, there’s plenty more we can offer:
- Job security – we’ve been going since 1980, we turn over £1.3bn and we’re not planning on hanging our boots up anytime soon!
- Free travel– for you and a household member on TfL bus and rail services (this is a non-contractual benefit). That means on your days off (of which there are plenty!) you can be off shopping without worrying about parking the car, or heading off for a day in the city without paying a fortune in fuel!
- A great regular income and great benefits – up to £29.01 per hour to be precise, plus a good pension scheme to look after you after you’ve hung up the spanner!
- Promotions – perhaps you’re happy sticking as a Technician and that’s fine by us, but if you want to progress we’ll support you every step of the way. You will be given exposure to work which will develop your skills and experience to allow you to progress your career further. Many of our Stagecoach London Engineering Managers started off as Technicians – so that could very well be you in the not too distant future!
