We are currently looking for a Prep Technician to join our family-run business in Morley.

About the Business

Our business started over 60 years ago and has been in the same family ever since. From humble beginnings, we have grown to be in the top 100 car dealers in the country, aiming to be in the top 50 soon. Across our 16 businesses, we have a stable workforce of over 400 people, many of whom have been with us for years. We are always looking for genuine, friendly people who care about our customers and have a can-do attitude.

Our recruitment philosophy is recruit for attitude and train for skills. While we often seek specific technical skills, if you enjoy working with customers and align with our Family Values of Fit, Fun, Family, and Fearless, you will fit in well here. We would love to hear from you!

What we offer:

• A competitive salary dependent on experience.
• Manufacturer training for product knowledge to develop your technical skills for working within a franchise.
• 30 days of annual leave, including 8 bank holidays.
• Discounts on servicing and repairs for your family and friends' cars.
• We close on Easter Sunday, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year's Day, especially if you have retail experience.

About You

Your duties will depend on your experience and training. As a skilled Technician, you should be able to handle both minor and major mechanical faults, including engine repairs, and restore vehicles to manufacturer standards.

We welcome applications from NVQ Level 3 trained Technicians or equivalent. Experience in a busy volume franchised dealership is advantageous but not essential if you work at an independent garage or dealer. Knowledge of Skoda/VW brands is a plus but not required.

You will need a Full UK driver's license and your own tools.

What you will need to succeed:

• Drive, passion, and enthusiasm to succeed.
• Confidence and capability in using workshop equipment safely.
• At least NVQ Level 3 training with experience in a franchised dealer or independent garage.
