The Maintenance Supervisor is responsible for supervising daily maintenance execution, technician work, first-level quality checks, job card updates, safety compliance, and escalation of workshop issues.

The role is not responsible for overall workshop strategy, final technical approval, customer communication, pricing, quotations, or divisional profitability.

These responsibilities remain with the Maintenance Manager, Operations Manager – Service, and Manager – Auto Division.

However, the Maintenance Supervisor must ensure that daily workshop execution is disciplined, safe, technically sound, and properly reported.
