Job description

Are you a hands-on leader who enjoys rolling up your sleeves and keeping a fleet running at its best? SRM Concrete is looking for a Shop Manager / Diesel Mechanic who combines strong management and teaching skills with deep mechanical expertise. In this working manager role, youโ€™ll lead by exampleโ€”overseeing shop operations, mentoring your team, and performing repairs and maintenance on our diesel-powered trucks, mixers, and heavy equipment. If youโ€™re organized, safety-focused, and ready to make a real impact, this could be the perfect fit for you.


  • Lead and mentor a team of mechanics and shop staff, setting the standard for safety, efficiency, and quality.

  • Diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic issues on a variety of diesel vehicles and heavy machinery.
  • Use diagnostic equipment and tools to accurately identify problems and determine the best solutions.
  • Rebuild, replace, or repair major diesel engine components such as heads, blocks, starters, and transmissions.
  • Collaborate with the operations team to schedule maintenance and repairs, minimizing downtime and keeping our fleet delivery-ready.
  • Ensure compliance with all safety policies and procedures in the shop and on job sites.
  • Keep detailed and accurate records of all maintenance and repair work.
  • Stay current on the latest diesel engine technology, repair techniques, and industry best practices.
  • Pitch in wherever neededโ€”this is a hands-on role where youโ€™ll work alongside your team to get the job done.

  • Proven experience as a Diesel Mechanic, Shop Manager, or Lead Technicianโ€”experience in the concrete or heavy equipment industry is a big plus.
  • Strong knowledge of diesel engines, hydraulic systems, and electrical systems.
  • Skilled in using diagnostic tools and equipment to troubleshoot and repair complex issues.
  • Excellent problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and a commitment to quality work.
  • Strong leadership, communication, and teaching skillsโ€”you know how to motivate and develop your team.
  • Organized and able to manage shop operations, schedules, and priorities effectively.
  • Commitment to safety standards and protocols in every aspect of your work.
  • High school diploma or equivalent required; vocational or technical certification in diesel engine repair is a plus.
  • Valid driverโ€™s license required; CDL preferred.
  • Willingness to complete SRMโ€™s pre-employment screenings.
