Bodyshop Manager
£60,000 OTE £80,000Location: HamptonPermanent position, Monday to Friday. Car allowance of £500 per month. 33 days annual leave including bank holidays. Yearly pay reviews.
If you’re an experienced Bodyshop Manager looking for a fresh challenge, this could be a great fit. It’s a chance to lead a well-established, high‑performing site in the Tunbridge Wells area, backed by manufacturer approvals and equipped with modern, high‑tech kit to help you and your team deliver top‑quality work.
As Bodyshop Manager, you’ll be the driving force behind a skilled and passionate on‑site team – including paint sprayers, panel beaters, MET technicians, estimators and admin staff. You’ll lead from the front, creating a positive, productive work environment and setting the pace for performance, quality, and customer service.
You’ll have full responsibility for the day‑to‑day running of the site – everything from health & safety and financial performance to customer satisfaction and team morale. That includes setting targets, monitoring KPIs, and ensuring work is completed efficiently, safely, and to the highest standards.
A vast knowledge of the repair and claims process is key, as you will be the go‑to person for ensuring everything runs smoothly – from job estimates through to final delivery. If you’re already familiar with Autoflow BMS and Audatex, even better, but above all it’s your experience and leadership that will count.
Your role will also involve recruiting new talent, holding daily production meetings, and working closely with parts, reception, suppliers and work providers to keep things running smoothly. You’ll be expected to meet or exceed CSI and Key‑to‑Key targets – with the support of a capable senior management team behind you.
Strong leadership, a sharp eye on costs and productivity, and the ability to deal with any issues (including rare customer complaints) are all part of the package. In short, this is a hands‑on leadership role where your impact will be felt across the entire business.
