Job description

Are you a passionate mechanic looking to move away from rigid main dealer pressures, or an independent technician ready to step up into a premier specialist group? We are hiring now!

Join our highly respected, large independent vehicle repair and diagnostic centre in Godalming. Established as a leading independent VAG specialist (Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, Skoda), we offer an exceptional alternative to high-pressure franchise networks, focusing heavily on engineering quality and specialized technical standards over volume.

The Rewards

  • Salary: £40,000 – £45,000 per year (Positioned right at the top of the market, depending on experience, with an OTE up to £45,000 PLUS through clear progression and rewards).
  • Schedule: Monday to Friday, 08:00 – 17:00—stable, permanent weekday hours with strictly no weekend shifts.
  • Holiday: 28 days holiday per year (including public holidays) to protect your personal work-life balance.
  • Environment: A spacious, highly professional independent facility working with a skilled team of like-minded individuals.
  • Perks: Ongoing career development, premium workwear provided, secure company pension scheme, and free on-site parking.

About Us

Based in Godalming, we are an established and highly regarded independent vehicle repair, diagnostic, and VAG specialist centre. Our modern facility is equipped with the latest-generation brand-specific software and specialized tools, handling everything from routine vehicle servicing to complex electrical and mechanical fault resolution. We pride ourselves on being one united team working towards shared goals, free from the high-pressure, target-driven corporate environments of modern franchise dealerships.

Your Role

As a core member of our Godalming technical team, you will handle a true variety of workshop responsibilities:

  • Maintenance & Repair: Carry out routine premium servicing, safety vehicle health checks, and high-level mechanical repairs.
  • Diagnostics & Fault Finding: Use modern, specialized VAG diagnostic equipment to test, identify, and resolve complex electrical and mechanical faults systematically.
  • Component Replacement: Inspect automotive components for wear and tear, and efficiently repair or replace parts (clutches, timing chains, suspension) to strict trade specifications.
  • Quality Assurance: Check vehicle subsystems and road-test vehicles after work is completed to guarantee "right first time" safety and quality standards.
  • Collaboration: Maintain excellent workshop housekeeping and support other technicians to maintain great team efficiency.

What You Need

  • Qualifications: Fully qualified Vehicle Technician or Car Mechanic (NVQ Level 2, Level 3, City & Guilds, or equivalent time-served workshop experience).
  • Experience: Proven track record as a confident technician, with hands-on technical familiarity across Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, or Skoda vehicles being highly desired.
  • Equipment: You must have your own tools to carry out daily repair and servicing tasks.
  • Licensing: A full UK driving licence is essential (with no more than 6 points). An active MOT Tester licence is always beneficial but not required.

Location & Search Reach

Our modern specialist facility is based in Godalming and is perfectly situated for an easy, straightforward daily commute for anyone travelling from Guildford, Woking, Farnham, Cranleigh, Haslemere, Milford, and Aldershot.
