Product Support Specialist – Coach & Bus Industry
- Fully Remote/Home-Based
- Flexible Hours
- Full Product Training Provided
Are you experienced in the coach and bus industry and confident speaking to drivers and operators over the phone?
Do you have the ability and confidence to learn about a product and understand how it works?
We are looking for a Product Support Specialist to join our client's team, providing first-class product support to coach and bus operators across the UK.
This is a fully remote, home-based role where you will become an expert on our product and support customers with their day-to-day queries, helping them get the most from the system.
The Role
You will be the first point of contact for coach and bus operators who need help using the product. You’ll listen to their problems, understand what they are trying to achieve, and guide them towards the right solution.
You do not need to be an expert from day one - full training on the product will be provided. What we do need is someone who is confident in their ability to learn the product, understand how it works and explain it clearly to customers.
The device is pretty plug-and-play, so there are only three areas of support required:
- Helping customers through the device menu
- Helping customers use the web interface to program it
- Troubleshooting connections with PA systems (Bluetooth pairing)
What We're Looking For - Industry experience is key.
We are particularly interested in people who have worked within the coach and bus sector and understand how the industry operates.
You may have experience as a:
- Bus or coach driver
- Transport/operations controller
- Route planner
- Transport manager
- Fleet or operations coordinator
- Coach or bus operator
- Customer support professional within the transport industry
- Someone who has worked with transport, scheduling or route-planning systems
Most importantly, you will understand the real-world challenges faced by coach and bus operators and drivers, particularly around route planning, journeys and day-to-day operations.
You will need to be:
- Confident on the phone and comfortable speaking to customers throughout the day.
- A strong communicator who can explain things clearly and patiently.
- Comfortable learning new technology
- A good problem solver with a logical approach.
- Customer-focused and able to remain calm when dealing with someone who is experiencing a problem.
- Self-motivated and comfortable working independently from home.
- Flexible with your working hours, including a willingness to work bank holidays where required.
- Organised and able to manage multiple customer queries effectively.
Don't Have a Technical Support Background?
That's absolutely fine. It is your coach and bus industry knowledge that we are after
Full training on the product will be provided.
What we cannot teach as easily is an understanding of the coach and bus industry. You should already understand the environment the customers work in, the pressures they face and the practical challenges that can arise.
If you have the industry knowledge, are confident speaking to people, and genuinely believe you can learn and master a new product, we'd like to hear from you.
What We Offer
- Fully remote, home-based position
- Full training on the product
- A role where your coach and bus industry experience is genuinely valued
- Flexible working arrangements
- The opportunity to work with an innovative product supporting operators across the transport sector
At KHR, we take care to ensure that you are represented as well as possible, so it is worth checking your CV for layout, spelling and grammar as well as making sure it is up to date before you submit. If you feel you need to highlight particular qualifications, skills or relevant experience with regard to a specific role, then please add a cover letter or a preface page.

- Monitoring performance against KPIs, SLAs and service standards.
- Identifying and managing operational risks, incidents and service issues.
- Maintaining a strong focus on health and safety, safeguarding and service resilience.
- Working collaboratively with technical specialists and internal stakeholders.
- Identifying and embedding practical improvements to service quality, efficiency and customer outcomes.
- The objective is to leave behind stronger management practices, improved operational effectiveness and a clear plan for longer-term improvement.
About You
We are looking for an experienced operational people leader who can establish credibility quickly, take ownership and make a positive impact in an interim environment.
You will ideally have:
- Significant experience managing people within a busy operational service environment.
- Experience leading a 24/7, shift-based, time-critical or similarly complex operation.
- A strong track record of motivating, developing and managing teams.
- Experience coaching and supporting other managers.
- Confidence handling challenging performance and employee relations matters.
- Experience managing service delivery against KPIs, SLAs or defined standards.
- Strong operational judgement and decision-making skills.
- Experience in workforce planning, resource deployment and operational improvement.
- A practical understanding of health and safety, operational risk and safeguarding.
- The ability to work effectively with specialist colleagues without needing to be the technical expert.
- Experience within contact centres, control rooms, customer service, utilities, transport, logistics, security, emergency response, public services, health and care, or other complex operational environments would be relevant.
What We're Looking For
- You will be a visible, approachable and decisive leader who is comfortable getting into the details, tackling challenges and holding people accountable.
- You will be pragmatic, solutions-focused and confident joining an established operation where improvements need to be delivered quickly and sustainably.
This opportunity would suit an experienced interim manager or an operational leader looking to make a meaningful impact, with the potential to secure a permanent position following the initial assignment.
At KHR, we take care to ensure that you are represented as well as possible, so it is worth checking your CV for layout, spelling and grammar as well as making sure it is up to date before you submit. If you feel you need to highlight particular qualifications, skills or relevant experience with regard to a specific role, then please add a cover letter or a preface page. This does not need to be formatted in the same manner. In addition, if your CV is heavy with graphics, etc, please could you also submit a "clean" copy in Word. Thank you.
