Our client, a multi-franchise-approved car dealership situated in Wantage, is currently looking to hire a fully qualified Vehicle Technician for their Service Department.
 
Reporting to the Service Manager and working alongside a friendly workshop team, as a Vehicle Technician, your main duties will include carrying out fault diagnosis, service, and repair as instructed to the standards laid down by the manufacturer and our client. Vehicle Technicians need to ensure faults are accurately diagnosed and report to the Service Manager as required on vehicle condition, safety, reliability and performance. You will need to ensure that quality procedures relating to the function laid down by our client and manufacturer are adhered to. 
 
To be eligible, you will need to be qualified to IMI/NVQ Level 3 or equivalent in Light Vehicle Maintenance and Repair, with ideally at least five years' experience as a Vehicle Technician post-qualification. You will need to hold a UK driving licence with no more than 6 points, be a committed individual, a good team player, and be IT literate with the ability to learn new systems. You must be able to produce a high quality of work in a stringent dealer environment, motivated to work towards targets set for your team, proficient with wiring diagrams, cambelts, clutches, and gearboxes, as well as being high voltage trained. Candidates with an MOT licence would be highly advantageous; however, this is non-essential. 

What's in it for you? For your hard work as a Vehicle Technician, our client is offering...
  • Starting salary between £35-40,000 per annum, pending experience.
  • Monthly team bonus up to £6,000 per annum.
  • 29 days annual leave (including the bank holidays).
  • Overtime, subject to availability, paid at an enhanced rate.
  • Access to manufacturer-accredited training/development and opportunity to gain MOT license.
  • Workplace pension scheme, staff purchase discounts, on-site parking and a discount from the nearby service station. 
  • Fantastic career prospects with a family-run car dealer group operating for over 90 years.
  • Monday to Friday 8:00am-5:00pm with a 30-minute lunch break and two 10/15 minute breaks.
