Service Manager - Heavy Equipment
$38 - $42 per hourService Manager – Heavy Equipment / Fleet (Nova Scotia)
Location : Greater Halifax Area, Nova Scotia | Job Type: Full-Time, Permanent | Industry: Equipment Rental / Heavy Equipment Service
Are you a Red Seal Heavy Equipment Technician ready to step into leadership, or an experienced Service Manager in the equipment rental, heavy equipment, or fleet maintenance space? We are partnering with a leading equipment rental company to hire a hands-on Service Manager to lead a busy shop and service team.
This is a key leadership role offering strong pay, a company vehicle, and a potential signing bonus for the right candidate.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Competitive compensation of approximately $38–$42/hour, based on experience (flexible for the right candidate).
Signing bonus available for a strong candidate.
Company vehicle, cell phone, laptop, and fuel card provided.
Full benefits – medical, dental, and life insurance, paid sick days, and negotiable vacation.
Lead an established service department with a shop team of roughly 16+.
What You Will Do
Lead and manage all service and shop operations – technicians, work orders, PMs, and equipment readiness.
Oversee repair quality, turnaround time, preventive maintenance compliance, and diagnostic standards.
Sign off on equipment inspections and communicate directly with customers on equipment and repairs.
Manage parts, sublets, repair costs, and service documentation while supporting branch profitability.
Coach, mentor, and develop technicians, and drive a strong safety and 5S culture.
Coordinate with operations, parts, dispatch, and sales to meet customer commitments.
What You Bring
Red Seal Heavy Equipment Technician certification is strongly preferred (or equivalent trade ticket).
Experience servicing off-road/heavy equipment – aerial lifts, telehandlers, dozers, forklifts, or similar.
Same-industry experience (equipment rental / heavy equipment service) is preferred.
Proven supervisory or management experience leading a shop or service team.
Strong customer communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
Valid driver’s licence with an acceptable driving record.
