Regional Service Manager
UK North
£55,000 - £60,000
You've spent years keeping technical service teams running smoothly, and you know how frustrating it can be when every day feels like another problem to fix. You enjoy supporting your engineers, building strong customer relationships, and finding ways to improve how services are delivered. Now you want greater ownership of regional operations and the opportunity to take a more proactive approach.
As a Regional Service Manager, you'll lead a field-based team supporting radiology equipment, making sure customers receive reliable technical support and a consistently high standard of service. You'll oversee day-to-day operations, help your team overcome technical challenges, and work closely with customers and internal stakeholders to improve service performance.
If you're a hands-on leader who enjoys developing people, solving problems, and building lasting customer relationships, this could be a great next move. You'll have the opportunity to shape how your region operates, improve service delivery, and create an environment where both your team and customers feel supported.
Who’s it for and what’s in it for you?
Our client sits at the heart of healthcare. They develop medical imaging, AI and digital tech that helps clinicians to diagnose conditions earlier and make better decisions for their patients. From MRI to CT, X-Ray to Ultrasound, their technologies combine cutting edge systems with a very human purpose that's all about making a difference.
Speaking of making a difference, they're a great place to be if you want to really advance your career. They'll support you from day one, through proper education programmes, exposure to lots of different projects across the business, and proper professional development. You'll also get access to a solid benefits package that includes things like performance bonuses, a set of wheels, medical coverage, more annual leave than the average, and a generous pension scheme.
