We would like to hear from you if you have worked in a similar environment and understand the intricate workings of large commercial vehicles.

For a limited time, anyone joining the organisation in a Technician position that successfully passes their probation will be entitled to a £2,500 joining bonus.

Some of the activities that you will be involved in will include but may not be limited to:

1. Interpret instructions from the job card/repair order and comply with repair instructions
2. Attend training and keep abreast of the latest technical information
3. Accurately report and record work done and tests carried out, including immediately reporting any further work required or vehicle faults
4. Maintain allocated work areas in a clean and tidy condition
5. Provide information, maintain records and carry out all duties in an accurate, efficient and timely manner
