Ember is the UK's first all-electric coach company. We launched in October 2020 and are now running on two routes – Dundee to Glasgow and Dundee to Edinburgh – with a route connecting to Aberdeen launching inAugust 2024.

We’re looking for a

PSV Mechanic

to join the team that works across our fleet – 38 electric coaches at the moment, and growing fast. You’ll be our third qualified mechanic hire, and will be at the heart of the team that we are building across Scotland. We are at advanced stages in developing

new charging hubs

in Inverness, Oban, Livingston and Fort William, with many more sites in the pipeline.

The ideal candidate will be experienced, energetic and confident with the passion to stay on top of the latest developments in the electric vehicle market. This will be a roaming role - working closely with the team in Dundee, and spending time there, but also visiting andworking at our sites right across Scotland.

This is a truly unique challenge - our coaches are used more intensively than any other electric vehicles in the world so not every problem will have a solution that can be found in a manual. Instead, your team will need to work closely with the manufacturer, go deep into understanding root causes and think creatively about how we could be avoiding the problem altogether in the future.

We’re looking for a problem-solver who will help to identify and resolve issues quickly, and will relish the challenge of joining a new team that will make our state of the art fleet the best-maintained in the country with the lowest downtime.

Responsibilities

As a PSV Mechanic, you're on the front-line. Not only will you be responsible for solving the immediate challenges in order to keep our coaches on the road, you'll also have an innate eye for both planned and preventative maintenance, always staying one step ahead of the curve.

We currently have a team of four employees dedicated to fleet maintenance.

You’ll form part of a department that brings allaspects of our maintenance in-house as we continue to grow.

We use technology heavily in the business, primarily building our own software systems. You'll need to be tech-savvy, open to learning new systems and comfortable using remote diagnostics.

You will need to meet these requirements:

Qualifications for PSV/HGV maintenance and repair to

NVQ Level 3

or an international equivalent

IRTEC accreditation

3+ years of experience at a senior level

Familiarity with all aspects of DVSA compliance
