- Prestige Fleet: Daily exposure to high-spec Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, and Jaguar Land Rover models
- Future-Proof Development: Fully funded ongoing technical training to continuously boost your skillset
- Modern Workspace: A clean, fully equipped, and well-maintained bay environment
What you will be doing:
- Accurately tracing and resolving complex electrical and mechanical faults across modern prestige vehicles
- Handling major mechanical repairs, including timing belts, timing chains, wet belts, clutches, and overhauls
- Managing chassis work, performance upgrades, brakes, suspension, and precision steering setups
- Requirements: NVQ Level 3 in Vehicle Repair (or equivalent), strong mechanical repair competence, logical diagnostic skills, and a valid UK Driving Licence (a DVSA MOT licence or prior German/JLR brand experience is a big bonus!)
