VEHICLE TECHNICIAN

Reading | £30,000-£40,000 Basic + £50,000 OTE | Up to £60,000 for Strong Performers

a Technician Role Where Your Experience Can Pay

Looking for a Technician role where good work is recognised, your earnings can grow with your performance and you can continue developing your skills?

This is an opportunity to join an established and growing automotive retail business in Reading, with a £30,000-£40,000 basic salary depending on experience and qualifications, a typical OTE of £50,000 and the potential for strong performers to earn up to £60,000.

THE OPPORTUNITY

You’ll be joining a professional workshop environment where quality workmanship, productivity and customer satisfaction all matter.

The Package Includes

• £30,000-£40,000 basic salary, depending on experience and qualifications
