Job description

About the business

We are looking for an experienced Service Technician to join our team at Suzuki Keighley.

We offer a market-leading salary and bonus scheme, with full details to be discussed during interview.

Want to progress? We can do that too. Manufacturer training awaits anyone with the passion and enthusiasm to succeed.

So, whether you are a qualified Master Technician with a Franchised Retailer or a mechanic at an independent garage wanting to get to that next level, come and talk to us.

Our business started over 60 years ago and has been in the same family ever since. From our very humble beginnings, we have grown to be in the top 50 car dealers in the country. Across our 26 businesses we have a stable workforce of over 600 people, many of whom have been with us for years. We are always on the lookout for nice, genuine people who genuinely care about our customers and have a can do attitude.

Our recruitment philosophy is that we recruit for attitude and train for skills, which means that although we’re often looking for specific technical skills, if you like working with customers and you are attracted by our Family Values of Fit, Fun, Family and Fearless, you’ll fit in well here and we’d like to hear from you even if you have no experience of the automotive industry.

We offer manufacture training for product knowledge to give you the technical skills you need, and we work with our own world class sales trainer who will give you everything you need to be a “top one percenter”.

We’ll expect you to work hard but in return we’ll offer you an industry leading package, flexible working hours and a real opportunity to progress: we prefer to promote from within and you will see this in every one of our sites. You must possess an outrageous ambition to want to be the best and you won’t let anyone stop you.

About you

We are looking for confident, experienced technicians who are comfortable working on their own initiative. MOT testing experience is preferential. We are looking for technicians who are Level 3 City and Guilds motor vehicle qualified or the equivalent.

• Drive, passion and enthusiasm to succeed.
• Demonstrate capability and confidence in using equipment within the workshop safely.
• At least NVQ level 3 trained with work experience in a franchised dealer or independent garage.

What we offer

• A competitive salary and bonus package.
• We offer a retention scheme worth up to £10,000 which increases with length of service
• Long service rewards
• A range of training and leadership development programs
• Manufacturer training for product knowledge to give you the technical skills you need to be working for part of a franchise
• 30 days annual leave inclusive of 8 bank holidays, increasing with length of service
• Preferential service rates and repairs including family and friends vehicles.
• A workplace pension scheme
• Cycle to work scheme
