Let's be honest...
Good technicians are hard to find.
The people who can diagnose faults properly, take pride in their work, and keep vehicles on the road safely and efficiently are always in demand.
If you're an experienced LCV Technician looking for a business that genuinely invests in its people, offers ongoing training, and provides long-term career opportunities, then this could be the role for you.
The Role
Working as part of a busy workshop team, you'll be responsible for maintaining, servicing and repairing a range of light commercial vehicles to the highest standards.
Day-to-day you'll be:
• Carrying out servicing, maintenance and repair work on LCVs and vans
• Diagnosing faults and identifying worn or damaged components
• Completing vehicle inspections and preventative maintenance activities

• Experience carrying out diagnostics, servicing and repairs on LCVs or passenger vehicles
• Strong fault-finding and diagnostic skills
• Ability to identify worn or faulty components in line with DVSA standards
• Full UK Driving Licence
• A positive attitude and commitment to delivering quality workmanship
Applications are welcomed from technicians with either LCV or passenger car experience.
Research shows many people won't apply unless they meet every requirement. If you have the relevant qualifications and experience, we'd still encourage you to apply.
