Express Recruitment - Recruitment Agency Nottingham Derby Leicester

Workshop Administrator

Overview

We are recruiting on behalf of a well-established organisation within the transport and logistics sector for an experienced Workshop Administrator to join an established team based in Erith. Although the office is commutable by public transport, it is an essential requirement for the role to possess a driving licence as there will be occasional use of a company vehicle for short business trips.

This is an excellent opportunity for an organised and proactive administrator looking to build a long-term career within fleet operations. Working as part of a supportive workshop team, you will play a key role in ensuring vehicles remain compliant, maintenance schedules are up to date, and the day-to-day administration of the fleet operation runs efficiently.

Due to the immediate requirement, applicants must have previous administration experience within the transport, logistics, fleet, workshop or vehicle maintenance industry.

A competitive salary is offered, alongside the opportunity to join a well-established business that values its employees and offers a varied, fast-paced working environment. Please note, this is a fully office-based position.

  • Confident using Microsoft Office applications, including Outlook, Excel and Word
  • Excellent organisational skills with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build effective working relationships with workshop staff, drivers and suppliers
  • A full UK driving licence is essential, as occasional vehicle movements may be required
Roles & Responsibilities
  • Create and maintain vehicle compliance and service schedules using the r2c fleet management system
  • Produce workshop job cards and ensure all documentation is completed accurately to support warranty claims and service records
  • Process customer invoicing, raise purchase orders, order and receipt vehicle parts, and assist with stock control and regular stock takes
  • Manage driver defect reports, coordinate repair bookings and liaise with workshop staff to minimise vehicle downtime
  • Maintain accurate fleet maintenance records and support the day-to-day administration of the Vehicle Maintenance Unit
  • Ensure all workshop administration is completed accurately and in line with company procedures
  • Confidently use Microsoft Office applications to produce reports and maintain records
