Operating from their modern workshop in Manchester, they maintain their own fleet of HGV vehicles alongside a growing customer base. Due to continued expansion, they are looking to recruit an experienced HGV / PSV Technician to join their team.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the inspection, servicing, maintenance and repair of HGVs, PSVs, trailers and other commercial vehicles, ensuring all work is completed safely, efficiently and to the highest standard.

Overtime after 40 hours for both shift patterns.
