Full Job Description

Our Desktop Motor Engineers in our Accident Management team manage the vehicle downtime whenever one of our cars or vans sustain damage, from road traffic accidents or other causes. Needless to say, this is a fast paced and busy department, given we currently own 180,000 vehicles in the UK alone.

Your challenge will be to ensure that any work carried out by a garage is relevant, cost effective, timely and safe. This means using your vehicle knowledge to maximum effect, to guarantee we utilise intelligent repair methods, each and every time. You will also identify vehicles that are uneconomical to repair and follow the correct total loss procedure.

Communication will be important to your success too, as you will be liaising with a variety of stakeholders. From Fleet Managers to our approved repair network, and insurance companies to internal account teams. It's important our customers can be updated, and the work is carried out to agreed time scales and standards. It's all about the customer.

We are looking for an energetic and confident vehicle engineer, ideally with experience gained in an accident repair centre environment. You will need to have the necessary experience and skills to provide advice and support on repair progression to colleagues and propose solutions to potential disputes. The icing on the cake will be Code of Salvage Practice AQP certification and VDA/ATA award.

Lastly, we need someone who can handle customer expectations, both internally and externally and ensure all are satisfied with the outcomes to your decisions. We will also look to you to identify opportunities to improve our service levels.

Key Skills required:

  • Proven vehicle engineer experience

  • Happy to be accountable and own cases

  • Solution focused and decisive

  • Customer orientated mind-set

  • Credible and confident communication skills

  • Highly motivated mentality

  • Team player

  • Competent using Audatex
