About this role

Strathclyde Business Park, Bellshill

From £27,000 per year (DOE)

Full-time | Monday–Friday | 37.5 hours

Plan. Coordinate. Keep Operations Moving.

This isn’t a typical admin role. You’ll be at the heart of our operations — responsible for planning engineer workloads, coordinating appointments, managing KPIs and ensuring our services run smoothly, efficiently and compliantly.

If you enjoy problem-solving, working at pace, and being the person who keeps everything on track, this role is for you.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Workforce Planning & Scheduling
  • Plan and optimise daily engineer routes using our automated scheduling system
  • Balance workloads and support manpower planning with Team Leaders and Engineering Managers
  • Monitor programme progress and performance against client KPIs
  • React quickly to changes, urgent jobs and last-minute amendments

Customer & Client Coordination

  • Act as a key point of contact for customers and clients
  • Manage incoming calls and emails professionally and efficiently
  • Book, reschedule and confirm appointments
  • Ensure appointment notifications are issued within agreed timescales

Compliance & Performance Support

  • Prepare and issue daily, weekly and monthly client reports
  • Ensure compliance documentation is accurate and submitted on time
  • Support adherence to gas and electrical safety legislation
  • Maintain accurate system records to protect service standards

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone proactive and organised who enjoys responsibility.

  • Previous experience in scheduling, coordination or administrative planning
  • Confident managing diaries, workloads or field-based teams
  • Strong organisational and time-management skills
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office and planning systems
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team

Experience in property services, facilities management or engineering coordination is advantageous — but not essential.

Working Hours

Monday to Friday

08:00 – 16:30 (37.5 hours per week)

No weekend work.
