Job description

Frustrated by rigid dealership rules or lack of variety?

It is time to join an established, multi-site independent specialist that genuinely values its technicians.

We are hiring a Car & Light Commercial Vehicle Technician to join our busy, expanding team in Leicestershire. If you hold your Level 2 or 3 qualification (or equivalent experience) and are ready for a dynamic, well-equipped workshop—complete with an on-site gym and standard Monday-to-Friday hours—we want to invest in your skills and help you thrive.

Why Join Us as a Vehicle Technician?

  • Great Work-Life Balance: Enjoy a standard 8am – 5pm, Monday-to-Friday working schedule.
  • Outstanding On-Site Perks: Free access to a fully equipped on-site gym, 28 days holiday (increasing with service), company clothing, and team-building events.
  • Diverse & Modern Workshop: Work on a huge variety of vehicles—from passenger cars and light commercial fleets to specialist transport—using up-to-date diagnostic tools.
  • Training & Qualification Pathways: We will support and fund MOT tester training (Classes 1, 2, 4, 5 & 7) for the right candidate.
  • Overtime & Earnings Potential: Extra overtime available subject to workload to boost your take-home pay.

About Us

Operating across modern multi-site facilities in Leicestershire, our established independent business has over 30 years of trading excellence. We specialize in comprehensive vehicle servicing, fleet maintenance, advanced diagnostics, and MOT testing across passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. Supported by an in-house breakdown fleet and dedicated workshop teams, we pride ourselves on exceptional customer care, technical expertise, and maintaining a well-equipped, supportive environment where technicians can build long-term careers.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Servicing & General Maintenance: Performing routine servicing, fleet inspections, health checks, and general mechanical repairs on all makes and models.
  • Major Mechanical Overhauls: Executing hands-on replacement of cambelts/timing chains, clutches, brakes, and suspension components.
  • Diagnostics & Fault Finding: Utilizing technical diagnostic software to accurately troubleshoot mechanical and electrical issues.
  • MOT Prep & Standards: Ensuring all repairs and inspections meet strict MOT safety and manufacturer guidelines.
  • Team Communication & Mentorship: Sharing technical expertise, writing accurate job descriptions, and helping guide apprentice technicians where needed.

Candidate Requirements

  • Qualifications: Level 2 or 3 qualification in Vehicle Maintenance & Repair (or equivalent time-served experience).
  • Technical Expertise: Confident with cambelts, clutches, diagnostic tools, and general car/LCV maintenance.
  • Communication: Clear verbal and written skills to liaise with colleagues and explain technical repairs.
  • MOT License: MOT Tester status (Classes 1, 2, 4, 5, or 7) is an advantage, but full training will be provided for the right candidate.
  • Licence: Full UK Driving Licence (Class C or C+E is a bonus).

Commutable Locations

Centrally located in Leicestershire with excellent regional transport links, offering a smooth commute from:

  • Ashby-de-la-Zouch: ~10–15 mins
  • Loughborough: ~20 mins
  • Leicester: ~20–25 mins
  • Hinckley: ~25 mins
