Due to continued growth, we are looking for an experienced Vehicle Technician to join our busy and professional workshop.

What We're Looking For

- Previous workshop experience within a dealership or independent garage.
- Strong diagnostic and fault-finding skills.
- Full UK driving licence.
- A positive attitude, strong work ethic and pride in producing quality work.

- Competitive salary of £35,000-£50,000 depending on experience.
- 22-24 days annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing with length of service.
