    *We will be interviewing for this vacancy over the coming weeks*About Conquip


    Conquip Engineering Group is a leading UK manufacturer and supplier of innovative construction equipment, supporting major infrastructure and building projects across the UK and internationally.

    As part of our continued growth, we are expanding our depot network and proudly opening our first Scottish depot in the Livingston area. This role offers a unique opportunity to play a pivotal part in establishing and developing a brand-new operation, with comprehensive support from central Operations, Transport, HR, and Client Operations teams.

    It is a hands-on, operational leadership position, ideal for someone who enjoys being present on the depot floor and leading by example.

    Role Overview


    The Depot Operations Manager will oversee the day-to-day management of the depot, ensuring safe, efficient operations that comply with Conquip's processes and standards.

    You will be instrumental in launching the depot, supporting recruitment and onboarding (with full assistance from Head Office), and embedding a strong operational culture from the outset. This is a working manager role that is highly hands-on and central to the depot's growth and success; it is not a desk-based position.

    Key Responsibilities

    Depot & Stock Operations

    Manage stock control across the hire fleet and new equipment
    Maintain accurate stock records and inventory systems
    Analyse stock movement to identify fast-moving and growth product lines

    Oversee goods-in processes, including:
    Cleaning and inspecting returned equipment
    Assisting with minor repairs as required
    Identifying repair needs and managing job sheets
    Recording labour and repair activity accurately

    Customer Service & Client Support

    Ensure customers consistently receive a high standard of service
    Act as the local escalation point for operational customer issues
    Collaborate closely with the Client Operations team to align stock availability with customer demand and sales pipeline requirements
    Promote a culture of service excellence across the depot

    Transport & Logistics

    Ensure depot transport activities comply with all relevant legislation and standards (including FORS, where applicable)
    Monitor and manage driver KPIs
    Coordinate vehicle movements in partnership with the central Transport team

    People Management

    Take day-to-day responsibility for depot staff (excluding sales roles)
    Support recruitment and onboarding of new team members in collaboration with HR and Head Office
    Train, develop and motivate depot personnel
    Plan and manage holiday and sickness cover effectively
    Lead by example and actively participate in operational tasks when required
    Deliver regular feedback, performance support and recognition
    Conduct team briefings and toolbox talks as necessary

    Health, Safety & Compliance

    Maintain full responsibility for depot QHSE standards
    Ensure compliance with Health & Safety legislation and Conquip procedures
    Maintain a clean, organised and safe depot environment
    Ensure all workflows align with Conquip operational processes

    Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

    Efficiency and effectiveness of daily depot operations
    Productivity, service levels and customer satisfaction
    Compliance with safety, quality and operational standards

    Essential Skills & Experience

    Proven experience in depot operations, logistics, hire, engineering or construction environments
    Strong operational leadership and people management skills
    Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, hands-on role
    Excellent organisational and communication skills
    Strong problem-solving mindset
    Confident IT user (Microsoft O365; experience with rental or asset management systems advantageous)

    Desirable

    Forklift licence
    Experience supporting the setup or growth of an operational facility
    Knowledge of transport compliance standards (e.g. FORS)

    Why Join Conquip

    Opportunity to play a pivotal role in launching Conquip's first Scottish depot
    Hands-on leadership role offering autonomy alongside strong support
    Backed by experienced Head Office teams and the chance to grow your existing skillset
