Fed up with relentless dealership targets, corporate box-ticking, and stressful bonus chasing? Step into a premier independent workshop in Harpenden that focuses on precision servicing, multi-point inspections, and routine maintenance for top-tier VAG, Porsche, and Jaguar Land Rover marques!

About Us

We offer a refreshing, high-quality alternative to the high-pressure corporate main-dealer environment. Based in a modern, clean, and fully equipped facility in Harpenden, our premier independent workshop specialises in high-spec prestige brands including Audi, VW, SEAT, Škoda, Porsche, and JLR. We trade aggressive targets for thorough, high-standard maintenance work, offering ongoing funded training to expand your technical knowledge and a supportive workplace culture built on mutual respect.

What is in it for you:

  • Salary: Up to £36,000 per year (reliably based on your actual hands-on experience)
  • Hours: Monday to Friday - 9am - 5pm - 1 Saturday morning a month
  • Perks: All Bank Holidays off as an additional paid holiday, fully funded technical training, daily exposure to prestige German, VAG, Porsche, and JLR models, and a modern, clean bay environment

What you will be doing:

  • Executing A & B manufacturer-standard servicing, oil changes, cabin/engine filter replacements, and fluid flushes across VAG, Porsche, and JLR vehicles
  • Carrying out comprehensive multi-point vehicle health checks (VHCs), safety inspections, and pre-MOT preparation checks
  • Performing routine wear-and-tear mechanical maintenance, including brake pads, discs, shocks, suspension bushings, and tyres
  • Utilising diagnostic reset tools for service interval resets, software updates, and basic fault-code scanning
  • Requirements: NVQ Level 2 or Level 3 in Vehicle Maintenance & Repair (or equivalent), proven track record as a Service Mechanic/Technician, keen attention to detail, and a valid UK Driving Licence (experience with VAG, Porsche, or JLR brands is a great plus!)

Commutable Locations:

This role is based in Harpenden, making it an easy commute from St Albans, Luton, Hemel Hempstead, Welwyn Garden City, and Hitchin.
