Repairs & Engineering Administrator
The Opportunity Our client is the global gold standard in lighting solutions for the film and television industry. From blockbuster movie sets to high-end streaming dramas, their equipment powers the biggest productions in the world.
We are seeking a sharp, highly organised Repairs & Engineering Administrator to join their support hub. This is a pivotal role that sits at the intersection of technical engineering and high-stakes logistics.
The Role This isn’t a "static" admin job. You will be the logistical heartbeat of the workshop, ensuring that high-tech equipment flows seamlessly from "faulty" to "production-ready."
Your key responsibilities will include:
Workflow Orchestration: Managing the end-to-end repair process, logging tickets, and prioritising urgent jobs to meet tight filming deadlines.
Logistics & Supply Chain: Coordinating with external repair partners, monitoring lead times, and managing spare parts stock levels.
Data Management: Maintaining 100% accuracy within RT Pro (inventory software) regarding equipment history, costing, and technical documentation.
Operational Efficiency: Assisting in the retirement of uneconomical equipment and managing billable repair records to keep the workshop running at peak performance. Who You Are The ideal candidate is a "safe pair of hands" who thrives in fast-paced, industrial, or technical environments.
Highly Organised: You can manage multiple priorities and stay calm when deadlines shift.
IT Proficient: Strong MS Office skills (specifically Excel) are essential. Experience with rental or inventory tracking software is a major plus.
Reliable & Flexible: You understand that the film industry doesn't always stick to a 9-to-5; you are comfortable working a 40-hour week with the flexibility for weekend work or overtime.
Communicator: You can build effective relationships with internal engineers and external suppliers alike. The Rewards Our client is a people-focused organisation that prides itself on career longevity and inclusive culture.
Financials: Competitive base salary + regular overtime opportunities + annual discretionary bonus.
Health & Security: Private health insurance, life insurance, and a comprehensive pension scheme.
Work-Life Balance: 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays).
Environment: A modern, bustling warehouse hub at the centre of the global entertainment supply chain
