We’re looking for a high‑level Master Technician or ambitious diagnostic technician to join our busy, forward‑thinking independent garage in Castle Douglas. This role is for someone who can diagnose, not guess — comfortable taking on complex faults, modern vehicle systems, and helping drive the technical standard of the workshop forward.
What you’ll be doing
* Advanced diagnostics across a wide range of vehicles
* Fault finding on complex electrical, network, and intermittent issues
* Working on EV and hybrid systems safely and competently
* Carrying out and supporting ADAS diagnostics and calibration
* Supporting other technicians with technical challenges when required
* General mechanical work when you’re not looking at squiggly lines
* Mentor apprentices and junior technicians
* Maintaining high standards with minimal comebacks
What we’re looking for
* Proven experience as a Master / Diagnostic Technician
* Minimum Level 3 EV qualification
* Strong diagnostic ability — able to trace faults, not just replace parts
* Good understanding of modern vehicle systems, including SCR and emissions control systems
* Solid knowledge of vehicle networks (LIN, CAN, etc.) and control modules
* Confident use of oscilloscopes and signal analysis for fault finding
* Experience using manufacturer diagnostic tooling and technical information systems
* ADAS experience beneficial (calibration, radar systems, etc.)
* MOT Tester an advantage (not essential)
* Willingness to travel for training when required
* A mindset focused on continuous improvement — this role is constantly evolving
* Professional attitude and pride in getting it right first time
What you get
* £45,000 – £55,000+ depending on experience
* No Saturdays — ever
* Birthday off every year (not from your holiday allowance)
* Extra holidays the longer you’re with us
* Modern, well‑equipped workshop with up‑to‑date diagnostic tools
* Ongoing investment in training (EV, diagnostics, ADAS)
* A proper working environment — no rushing, no cutting corners
The opportunity
You’ll be joining a workshop that is actively investing in the future — EV, diagnostics, and advanced vehicle systems. This isn’t a place where you’ll be held back. You’ll have the tools, support, and environment to operate at a true master technician level.
