How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Job description

    KMC Recruitment are working with a well-established and highly respected business within the hire sector to recruit a Washbay Operative for their Reading depot.

    This is a hands-on role working within a busy depot environment, supporting the preparation, cleaning, and presentation of equipment before they go back out to customers. If you take pride in keeping things right, spot problems others miss, and don’t mind getting stuck in, this could be a good fit.

    You’ll be part of a close-knit operational team where quality standards matter and everyone mucks in when needed.

    The Role

    You’ll be responsible for ensuring equipment is cleaned, checked, replenished, and prepared to a high standard before dispatch, as well as identifying any damages or operational issues when units return to depot.

    Day-to-day duties will include:

    * Cleaning welfare units and plant equipment to company standards

    * Supporting the loading and unloading of vehicles and wash bay areas

    * Working closely with yard, stores, and PDI teams

    * Reporting damages, defects, or repair requirements

    * Maintaining a clean and safe working environment

    * Supporting the maintenance team where required

    * Following all Health & Safety procedures and safe systems of work

    * Using PPE and equipment correctly at all times

    What We’re Looking For

    Essential:

    * Experience working within a yard-based or depot environment

    * Strong team-working attitude

    * Good attention to detail

    * Reliable and proactive approach to work

    Desirable:

    * Vehicle maintenance experience

    * City & Guilds qualification or equivalent

    * Relevant vehicle maintenance qualifications

    * Flexibility to work additional hours if required

    * Willingness to travel occasionally if needed

    What’s on Offer

    * Monday to Friday working hours

    * Stable, long-term opportunity with a respected business

    * Supportive depot environment

    * Opportunity to develop within the hire industry
