Then we are looking for you! For our Van Mossel Vans & Trucks location in Rotterdam Charlois, we are looking for an enthusiastic Workshop Manager who, together with the team, strives for the best result every day.

As Workshop Manager, you are responsible for the daily management of a team of 18 technicians. Together, you are responsible for the maintenance of Mercedes-Benz trucks and vans.

Together with the Truck Foreman, you ensure a good division of labor and efficient planning, so that all activities in the workshop run smoothly. You are visibly present on the shop floor, support your colleagues where necessary, and enjoy rolling up your sleeves yourself. With your technical knowledge and leadership qualities, you ensure that quality and productivity remain at a high level.

Furthermore, your duties and responsibilities consist of:

• Accepting and handing over workshop orders and work instructions to the technicians;

• Providing feedback on complex diagnoses and extensive repair proposals to the reception;

• Providing and monitoring final inspections of the performed work;

• Providing technical support to technicians during diagnoses and repairs;

• Communicating in a timely and professional manner with the Mercedes-Benz technical service regarding complex malfunctions;

• Providing complete repair files to the reception;

• Conducting performance reviews;

• Drafting the holiday schedule, ensuring good staffing levels based on knowledge and capacity;

• Actively participating in the daily three-way meeting between reception, warehouse, and workshop.

You are an experienced Workshop Manager with a passion for technology and commercial vehicles. You know how to manage, motivate, and support a team. Thanks to your technical insight and experience, you also know how to determine the right direction in the case of complex issues. You stay informed about the latest technical developments and know how to find the necessary information.

In addition, you are a strong communicator, both towards your colleagues and towards customers. You are involved, think in solutions, and know how to create a positive working atmosphere with your enthusiasm. Together with your team, you strive for the best result and, of course, celebrate the successes!

Van Mossel Mercedes-Benz Vans & Trucks is part of the Van Mossel Automotive Group. Over the past 75 years, we have grown into the largest automotive company in the Benelux. We are ambitious, growing fast, but we are far from finished growing!

Despite our size, we are still a true family business. The family atmosphere is therefore clearly felt at all our locations, including our Vans & Trucks location in Rotterdam Charlois. At this location, we work with approximately 30 colleagues. Together, we strive every day to optimally relieve our customers' worries and exceed their expectations.

We work hard, but we find a good working atmosphere at least as important. There is room for a joke, we help each other where necessary, and we regularly end the week in a convivial manner with a Friday afternoon drink.

As Workshop Manager, you will receive an independent and responsible position with plenty of room for personal development and potential career growth opportunities.

Do you already see yourself at the helm of our workshop in Rotterdam Charlois? Are you ready for a new challenge in which you can combine your technical knowledge and leadership qualities? Then we would love to meet you!
