Safety and Compliance
- Enforce safety protocols, including proper use of PPE and hazardous material handling
- Oversee the correct process of waste disposal for oils and fluids
- Stay updated on industry changes, such as new vehicle technologies

What We’re Looking For

- Land Rover / 4x4 experience preferred but not essential
- Full UK driving licence
- Strong diagnostic and problem-solving skills
- Confidence using modern diagnostic systems and workshop technology
- A team-focused attitude with great communication skills

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who takes pride in their work and enjoys being part of a professional, supportive team.
