Job description

Team Leader page is loaded## Team Leaderlocations: Aberdeen, United Kingdomtime type: Full timeposted on: Heute ausgeschriebenjob requisition id: JR-0080762Linde Material Handling is one of the world's leading manufacturers of forklift trucks and warehouse equipment. We operate in over 100 countries worldwide and have around 13,000 people working for the brand. A worldwide network of more than 8,500 service technicians ensures maximum availability of Linde trucks and solutions, and based on its worldwide logistics network, Linde guarantees spare part delivery within 24 hours. Linde Material Handling offers a range of challenging careers across the country, and we are keen to talk to you about the direction in which you would like your career to go. We are currently looking for a Team Leader to join our team in the North (Scotland) area. The geographical patch to be covered is the AB to IV postcode area. We are looking for vehicle technicians or mechanical engineers who have experience working as a forklift technician, plant fitter, plant technician, vehicle technician or a similar type of role. Experience within plant equipment, powered access equipment, agricultural machinery, motor vehicles or industrial cleaners may make this role perfect for you! Working with everything from small pallet trucks, through to IC trucks, VNA trucks and automated trucks, you will be required to find, diagnose, and rectify faults, and undertake preventative maintenance on Linde forklifts and other material handling equipment at our customer sites. A message from one engineer to another Linde works well for me because the hours suit my lifestyle and I have a better home/work life balance. In my previous role I often worked shifts which included weekends/nights, this made making plans with family difficult. Annual leave was challenging to take unless booked a year in advance and working bank holidays was a requirement. Great salary, paid door to door and the support of the team here is invaluable. Before I joined Linde, I met with my team on yearly basis. Now, we meet regularly for coffee and breakfast and it’s nice to have the opportunity to have informal catch ups with my team and managers.# **Das bieten wir:***To be considered for this role, you will need experience in at least one of the following areas:**Mechanical engineering**Electrical engineering**Hydraulics**Ideally you will have an NVQ level 3 (or equivalent) qualification, although this is not essential.**You will need to be IT literate and able to use latest technology to keep accurate records and place orders.**You must hold a full UK driving licence.****You will need to have the following personal attributes:****Good levels of man management skills, having demonstrated an ability to work in a team and a desire to promote quality customer service.**A good standard of communication skills displaying the confidence to develop the potential of staff**Comfortable in Customer facing situations**Good levels of numeracy / literacy**Manage a team of c 10-20 engineers (subject to location)**Energetic, motivated and pro-active team player**Qualified maintenance engineer (NVQ level 3/ equivalent) in relevant discipline or industry experience.**Industry Know How**Good knowledge of company IT systems with the ability to provide first level support**Conflict Management**Qualified to conduct Thorough Examination**Demonstrate successful Communication and Management skills to deliver excellent service through a team of Engineers.*# **Aufgaben und Qualifikationen:**Salary will depend on experience 40 hour working week Door to door payment Overtime opportunities Occasional on-call support required paid in addition to your salary Company van and fuel card, with the option for private use Van washing through fuel card account 25 days annual leave Company pension scheme - 6% employer contribution; minimum 4% employee contribution Discount scheme, with access to deals from some of the UK’s largest brands World class Linde specialised product training Full Forklift Driver LicenceStructured 6-week on-boarding and training plan
