Part of a small highly professional and dedicated team, the time is a highly customer facing focused role in every aspect, initially greeting customers, inspecting their personal belongings tactfully but thoroughly, assisting them with any issues that may arise, then presenting a presence whilst 'in-flight'. Customer service, team work and communication are vital every day skills, with the occasional conflict management.

Maintenance Technician

Apr 2021 - Jan 2022
R&G is a small rapidly expanding successful business specialising in electric transport and electronic travel assistance. As the workshop supervisor I am responsible for organising incoming repair and warranty work, organising a team of 3 to carry out repairs and prepare new scooters and bikes to be delivered to customers. Demand is high and as such the need the be on the ball is essential. Many of the products are quite different, so a wider understanding of electronics and electronic fault finding is essential. The work can be anything from a simple puncture repair and tyre change, to a complete strip and rebuild of a complex electric scooters electronics. I also liase closely with our dispatch, the customer service advisers, the managers, and manufacturers overseas, ensuring the parts required and correct, and ordered in a timely fashion. Show less

Jan 2019 - Apr 2021
I work primarily in the field of heavy maintenance, my role is a team leader rate which I carry out whilst working on the Units as required. I do the majority of the heavy lifting work, changing air conditioning modules, traction motors, wheel sets, bearing changes, any of the underslung equipment from compressors to toilet tank changing our unblocking, then testing whatever has been changed.I have a different team most days, I have to liaise with office staff, senior management, as well as depot infrastructure members and off site people who are involved in minor improvement projects I have going.it's a challenging role most days, I have to work to a deadline, ensuring that the units are fit and returned to service as soon as possible, and where this is not possible, ensure that parts are ordered and delivered quickly.Most days I'm heavily involved in the work myself, so all the other things that are required are done around the job for that day.
