Are you a qualified Vehicle Technician looking for a fresh opportunity with a business that values your skills, invests in your development and offers a genuine work-life balance? If so, we’d love to hear from you.
Why join Davidsons?
Davidsons is a long-established, family-run motor retailer with dealerships in Benton and Morpeth. We're proud of the reputation we've built for delivering excellent customer service, investing in our people and creating a supportive working environment where employees are respected, trusted and encouraged to develop their careers. Many of our employees have been with us for years, something we're incredibly proud of.
Due to increasing customer demand, we're looking for an experienced Vehicle Technician to join our busy workshop in Benton.
You'll be joining an experienced workshop team, working with modern diagnostic equipment in a busy dealership where quality workmanship is valued and everyone pulls together.
What you'll be doing
As an important member of our workshop team, you'll be responsible for carrying out servicing, maintenance and repairs to the high standards our customers expect.
Your work will include:
- Servicing and routine vehicle maintenance.
- Mechanical and electrical repairs.
- Fault finding and diagnostics using modern equipment.
- MOT preparation and warranty repairs.
- Working efficiently whilst maintaining high standards of workmanship.
- Supporting colleagues and sharing your knowledge where appropriate.
- Working closely with our Service Advisors to ensure an excellent customer experience.
What we're looking for
We're keen to hear from qualified technicians who take pride in their work and enjoy being part of a professional team.
Ideally, you'll have:
- Experience as a Vehicle Technician, preferably within a franchised dealership.
- Strong diagnostic and fault-finding skills.
- A recognised motor vehicle qualification.
- A full UK driving licence.
- Your own tools.
Experience with Vauxhall or Volkswagen vehicles would be an advantage but is by no means essential. If you're an experienced technician from an independent garage, we'd still love to hear from you.
What you'll receive
- £35,000 pa basic - realistic earnings potential up to £48,000 with rewarding bonus scheme
- A monthly performance bonus scheme that genuinely rewards productivity, giving experienced technicians the opportunity to significantly increase their earnings.

- A modern workshop with up-to-date diagnostic equipment.
