Company Description

Watch Repair UK is a small but busy independent watch repair company based in Slaidburn, Lancashire, surrounded by the rolling hills of the Ribble Valley.

We have been established for over 15 years and have built a strong reputation for high-quality watch servicing, repair and restoration.

Our workshop handles a steady flow of luxury watches, including TAG Heuer, Breitling, Omega and other well-known Swiss brands.

We are a close-knit team with a calm, focused working environment.

This is not a high-street retail role or a pressured sales environment.

It is a peaceful countryside workshop where the priority is careful, professional watch repair work, good standards and a positive team atmosphere.

Role Description

We are looking for an experienced Watchmaker or Watch Technician to join our growing workshop on a full-time basis.

The role will involve servicing, repairing, testing and preparing customer watches to a high standard.

The ideal candidate will have strong practical experience with quartz and/or mechanical watches and take pride in accurate, clean and reliable work.

Day-to-day work may include

  • Quartz watch servicing and repairs
  • Mechanical watch servicing and repairs
  • Chronograph testing and repair work
  • Battery replacement, resealing and pressure testing
  • Case and bracelet checks
  • Fault finding and diagnostics
  • Quality control and final testing
  • Working on luxury watch brands including TAG Heuer, Breitling and Omega
  • What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who is reliable, careful and genuinely enjoys watch repair work.

The ideal candidate will have

  • Previous experience as a Watchmaker, Watch Technician or Horologist
  • Experience working on Swiss watches
  • Good attention to detail
  • A clean and organised working style
  • The ability to work independently
  • A professional attitude toward customer watches
  • Pride in producing high-quality work

Experience with TAG Heuer, Breitling, Omega or similar luxury brands would be beneficial, but the most important thing is skill, care and the right attitude.

What We Offer

  • Small, friendly team
  • Steady flow of quality watch repair work
  • No retail sales pressure
  • Supportive working environment
  • Opportunity to grow with an established independent company
  • Workshop based in Slaidburn, Lancashire

This role would suit someone who wants to work in a relaxed but professional environment, away from the pressure of a large corporate workshop, while still handling a strong volume of interesting luxury watch repairs.

  • Location
  • Slaidburn, Lancashire, United Kingdom
  • On-site role
