Keeping Scotland moving when people need help most.

Every breakdown, accident or roadside emergency creates a stressful situation for someone. That's where you come in.

We're looking for a highly organised and proactive Breakdown Coordinator to join our busy vehicle recovery operation in Glasgow.

This is a fast-paced position where you'll coordinate recovery drivers, liaise with breakdown providers and emergency services, and ensure customers receive exceptional support when they need it most.

If you thrive under pressure, enjoy problem-solving, and take pride in delivering outstanding customer service, we'd love to hear from you.

The Role

As a Breakdown Coordinator, you'll be at the heart of our operation, ensuring vehicles, drivers and customers are supported efficiently and professionally throughout the day.

Working within a busy control room environment, you'll communicate with drivers, customers, breakdown organisations and external partners to coordinate vehicle recoveries and keep operations running smoothly.

No two days are the same, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, responsibility and working as part of a close-knit team.

You will be responsible for:

• Managing and coordinating vehicle recovery operations across your shift.
• Accepting and processing jobs from major breakdown and recovery providers.
• Dispatching, monitoring and supporting recovery drivers throughout the day.
• Maintaining regular communication with drivers to ensure efficient service delivery.
• Liaising with customers and members of the public in a professional and empathetic manner.
• Communicating with Police Scotland and other relevant agencies when required.
• Handling enquiries, updates and service requests via telephone and email.
• Processing invoicing, job administration and customer queries.
• Ensuring all documentation and records are maintained accurately.
• Supporting the wider team with general administrative duties.

We're seeking a confident and organised individual who can remain calm under pressure and make effective decisions in a fast-moving environment.

Essential Skills & Experience

• Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail.
• Strong communication and interpersonal abilities.
• Confident telephone manner and customer-focused approach.
• Ability to multitask and prioritise workloads effectively.
• Experience working to deadlines in a busy operational environment.
• Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive mindset.
• Good numeracy and literacy skills.
• Competent user of Microsoft Office packages.
• Flexible approach to working hours and business needs.
• Own transport and ability to travel to the workplace.

It would be great if you had:

• Previous experience within transport, logistics, fleet, recovery, roadside assistance or operational control environments.
• Experience working in a dispatch, scheduling or coordination role.
• Knowledge of the vehicle recovery industry.

Training will be provided, so candidates from other fast-paced administrative or service environments are encouraged to apply.
