Our client, a family-run automotive commercial vehicle dealer group with multiple centres across Southern England, is currently recruiting for a Heavy Goods Vehicle (HGV) Technician to join their busy dealership in Bicester.

Reporting to the Service Manager and working as part of a team in a modern purpose-built workshop, your key objectives as an HGV Technician will include:
