Role Overview

UK Hose is growing fast, and we are looking for a Parts & Fleet Coordinator to join our Ipswich Head Office.

This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the UK’s fastest-growing hydraulic hose businesses at a time of major investment. We are currently growing at around 50%, working with some of the best hydraulic hose, fittings and assembly products on the market, and continuing to invest in new tools, equipment and facilities across the business.

 

The Role

We’re looking for an Onsite Parts & Fleet Coordinator to support our engineers in the field and help with the day-to-day coordination of our vehicle fleet.

You’ll be a key point of contact for engineers attending breakdowns and repairs, helping them find the parts, information and practical solutions they need to get the job completed.

Alongside this, you’ll work closely with our Fleet Manager to coordinate vehicle servicing and repairs, van movements and the preparation of vans for new and existing engineers. It’s a varied, hands-on role where priorities can change quickly, so we’re looking for someone who is organised, practical and comfortable getting stuck in and finding solutions.

Your responsibilities will include:

    • Speak with engineers on site to understand what they need to complete breakdowns and repairs.
    • Contact suppliers to source suitable parts, check availability and arrange supply.
    • Help find practical solutions when an engineer is unable to complete a job as planned.
    • Keep engineers and colleagues updated on parts requests, progress and any delays.
    • Assist the Fleet Manager with booking vans in for servicing, repairs, inspections and other vehicle appointments.
    • Coordinate and record van movements between depots, suppliers and other locations.
    • Occasionally drive company vans to different locations. Some journeys may require flexibility outside the usual 08:00–17:00 working hours.
    • Check, organise and prepare van stock before vehicles are issued to new engineers.
    • Check stock in vans returned to the main depot and record any missing, damaged or required items.
    • Arrange replacement or additional stock where required.
    • Maintain accurate records of parts requests, stock checks, vehicle bookings and vehicle movements.
    • Work closely with engineers, suppliers, Fleet and Operations to keep things moving and minimise delays.

 

Relevant Experience

We’re looking for someone who is practical, organised and good at getting things done.

You’ll need:

    • A full UK driving licence.
    • A can-do attitude and strong work ethic.
    • Clear communication skills and confidence speaking with engineers, suppliers and colleagues.
    • Good organisation and the ability to manage several requests at the same time.
    • A practical approach to problem-solving and the ability to follow issues through to completion.
    • Good attention to detail, particularly when checking stock, arranging bookings and recording information.
    • The ability to work calmly when priorities change and jobs need dealing with quickly.

Experience in parts, fleet administration, stock control, vehicle logistics, engineering support or a similar role would be useful, but it isn’t essential. More important is having the right attitude, being willing to learn and being someone who takes ownership of getting things sorted.

 

What you can expect

This is a varied role within a busy operational environment where no two days are necessarily the same. You’ll work closely with our engineers and operational teams and will play an important part in making sure our engineers have the parts, vehicles and support they need to do their jobs effectively.

If you’re someone who enjoys solving problems, staying busy and being the person people can rely on to get things sorted, we’d like to hear from you.

 

Licence/Certification:

  • Driving Licence (required)

 

Work Location: In person

What We're Looking For

  • Reliable, organised and quality-focused.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced production environment.

  • Able to follow clear processes and work to deadlines.
  • Proud of producing accurate, high-quality work.
  • A team player with a positive attitude.
  • Keen to learn, improve and develop within the business.

What We Offer

  • A growing business with strong long-term opportunities. 
  • Investment in new tools, equipment and production facilities.
  • High-quality products and respected brands.
  • The opportunity to work with OEM and trade counter customers.
  • A strong track record of developing people within the business.
  • A supportive team environment with clear standards and ambition.
  • The chance to be part of an exciting growth journey.
