Vehicle Technician

Master Technician (Days)

We need you

If you love being a Vehicle Technician but you re thinking I fancy a change , I want more variety or I want better hours , then we may just have exactly what you re looking for!

You ve probably seen some of our 166 vehicles driving around Liverpool, transporting our fantastic customers across our network every year.

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 of maintaining and repairing our fleet of buses in Liverpool, part of the near 400 we operate across Merseyside, Cheshire & South Lancashire. Vehicles range from buses including Dennis, Scania and Optare. We have invested (& continue to do so) in new diesel & Hydrogen buses, and thus there s some state of the art vehicles to work on.

Don t worry if you ve not worked on these vehicles before (or indeed buses) we ll train you on everything you need to know, and you ll be supported by a great team of Fitters, fellow Technicians, Electricians and Engineering Managers who all pull together to do a brilliant job.

And it s not all depot-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 GBP1.3bn and we re not planning on hanging our boots up anytime soon!
• Free travel for you and your companion on our buses. That means on your days off you can be off shopping for free without worrying about parking the car, or heading off for a day in the city without paying a fortune in petrol or train fares!
• A great regular incomeand great benefits GBP24.00 per hour, GBP2500 joining incentive Receive GBP1250 after 32 months and the remaining GBP1250 after 6 months. Plus a good pension scheme to look after you after you ve hung up the spanner!
• Promotions perhaps you re happy sticking as a Master 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 Merseyside, Cheshire & South Lancashire Engineering Managers started off as Master Technicians so that could very well be you in the not too distant future!
• Training a dedicated high level training programme to reinforce the skills you already have and an opportunity to gain a qualification in another trade!

You don t have to come from a bus background (but we wouldn t be put off if you did either!), but you will need to have worked in a engineering technician field truck, haulage, automotive, plant, rail, farm if it moves, it s good experience for working on buses!
