Who are we

We’re Travis Perkins Hire. With 250 locations nationwide, we're proud to be part of the Travis Perkins family. Whether it's tool, plant, and equipment hire, powered access, waste management, or welfare hire, we've got our customers covered at every stage of their project. Need advice, safety training, or a demo? We're always ready to help. Hiring with us is simple — we tailor the price to suit our customers, offering a reliable delivery and collection service they can count on. Quick jobs or tough jobs, we get it sorted.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll work closely with the Hire Manager to ensure compliance with all mechanical and electrical processes related to the repair and testing of tools and equipment, maintaining the Travis Perkins Hire standard.

• You’ll assist your Hire Manager in managing all aspects of the Hire Department and business, ensuring that all equipment is fully repaired, tested, and safe for hire.

• With your growing knowledge of our products and services, you’ll be a key contact for customers, building strong relationships, understanding their needs, and offering expert advice while recommending alternatives to maximise sales and profitability.

• Safety is our priority, so you will follow all Hire processes and procedures, including audits and inspections.

Who you are
