An established, highly regarded independent service center in Worcester is seeking a practical, skilled Vehicle Technician to join their close-knit workshop team.

What's Included in the Package?

- Financial Security: Contributory workplace pension scheme
- Workplace Perks: Free on-site parking, modern multi-brand diagnostic scan tools, trade parts discounts, and supplied workwear

- Document clear technical findings on job cards and keep front-desk staff informed on job timelines
- Maintain clean working bays and follow standard workshop health and safety protocols
What We Need From You
- Technical Experience: Time-served mechanic with solid confidence in heavy mechanical work and diagnostic fault isolation
- Qualifications: Level 3 NVQ / IMI in Light Vehicle Maintenance & Repair (or equivalent time-served garage background)
