Is it basically the case that you will be co ordinating these guys or that you will be managing them? If you will be co ordinating and administering their jobs you need to show a keen eye for detail, and an ability to learn new software systems quite quickly (a lot of these companies use work order/purchase order systems) any kind of filing system knowledge will be good too... As well as possibly a basic grasp of the necessities of stuff like planned preventative maintenance etc.
Without knowing a bit more about the job I couldn't really help you more I'm afraid. And I'm guessing you wouldn't know much more yourself unless you get it! Haha0 -
Is it not mechanical & electrical1
