Job description

We are currently looking to expand the successful and highly driven team within our award-winning family business, with the addition of a qualified Vehicle Mechanic to join our Car Service team at our main FordStore in Norwich.

With ever-growing advancements in the automotive industry, this opportunity will allow the successful applicant to work on the latest Ford range – including the exciting prospects of electric and hybrid. You will also receive manufacturer training to keep you at the forefront of technology.

The ideal candidate will :

• Possess good diagnostic skills and enjoy problem-solving.
• Have a flexible approach and strong work ethic.
• Be able to accurately follow repair orders and diagnosis procedures.
• Hold a current UK driver’s license.
• Will hold a level 3 qualification in vehicle maintenance and have a good level of experience within the role, however level 2 qualifications and less time served applicants will be considered.
• Previous experience within a Main Dealer would be beneficial but is not essential.

The salary advertised is based on working 42.5hours per week but as a flexible, inclusive employer, we can tailor the role to suit you :

• A 42.5hour week can be worked over 4.5 / 5 days, Monday to Friday.
• A 40hour week can be worked over 4 days with a rolling weekday off.
• Or lesser hours are available to help work around caring responsibilities / the school run.

If you are the right candidate for the role, we will do our best to accommodate your needs!

You will also work 1 in 4 Saturdays on a rotational basis, paid as overtime.

In return, you will benefit from an excellent base salary and a generous bonus scheme, together with excellent employee benefits, and the reward of being part of a winning team.

Another real benefit of working for a forward thinking and technologically advanced company like ours, is the investment we make in our staff and when it comes to Technicians this investment is substantial. You will benefit from a company that knows the real value of training and not at the “minimum” level which so many others will do. We will support you to be the best you can be through our extensive training programmes with dedicated pathways which enable your goals and ours to be reached. At present we have a particular emphasis on electric vehicle training as we see the industry transitioning across both in car and CV, with Ford set to continue as market leaders.

Furthermore, our investment in facilities and equipment are top level – the best in Norfolk! Our workshops have recently undergone a transformation, with a complete refurbishment including new ramps, built in toolboxes and we also know the value of ultrafast connectivity to the internet, so that’s in place and we have state of the art laptops (which are also issued to our apprentices).

All these investments and commitments are aimed at setting us apart from the competition, making the whole team as efficient as possible and enabling you to do what you really love, to be able to “crack on” on and get the job done!

Busseys are dedicated to providing an inclusive culture throughout the whole business and actively promote diversity with the elimination of discrimination in the workplace. We are committed to ensuring every employee & job applicant is treated fairly and no less favorably based on the grounds of age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, nationality religion or belief. We are opposed to all forms of unlawful and unfair discrimination.
