About Us
We are a highly trusted, family-run independent specialist with over four decades of local heritage and an expanding client base. Stepping away from high-pressure corporate main dealers, our Horndean workshop combines long-term job security with regular, hands-on exposure to premium German marques and performance vehicles. We pride ourselves on clean, "fixed-first-time" standards, advanced ongoing technical training, and an environment where your technical initiative and expertise are genuinely valued.
What is in it for you:
- Top-Tier Pay: £35,000 – £45,000 basic salary (tailored directly to your technical expertise)
- Reclaim Your Weekends: Strictly Monday to Friday ONLY—keep every Saturday and Sunday for yourself
- Exciting Fleet: Daily exposure to premium German brands (with strong focus on Mercedes-Benz) and performance cars
- Invested Development: Advanced ongoing technical training and modern diagnostic equipment
- Unbeatable Security: Join a trusted 40-year local name backed by a loyal, expanding customer base
- Perks & Comfort: Free on-site parking and a supportive, family-oriented team atmosphere
What you will be doing:
- Performing troubleshooting and complex electrical/mechanical fault-finding using modern diagnostic platforms
- Delivering precision servicing, routine maintenance, multi-point health checks, and thorough MOT preparation
- Handling specialist mechanical repairs, overhauls, and detailed maintenance on premium vehicles
- Requirements: NVQ Level 2 or Level 3 in Light Vehicle Repair (or equivalent hands-on experience), strong logical diagnostic capability, and a full UK Driving Licence (Mercedes-Benz diagnostic experience is a major plus!)
