Let's be honest...
Good HGV Technicians are worth their weight in gold.
You're the people who keep fleets moving, solve problems others can't find, and make sure vehicles leave the workshop safe, compliant and ready for the road.
If you're looking for a role where your skills are genuinely valued, where training and development are encouraged, and where there are real opportunities to build a long-term career, then this could be exactly what you're looking for.
The Role
Working as part of a busy and experienced workshop team, you'll be responsible for maintaining, diagnosing and repairing a range of HGVs, trailers and commercial vehicles.
Day-to-day you'll be:
? Carrying out servicing, maintenance and repairs on HGVs and trailers
? Diagnosing faults and identifying worn or damaged components
? Completing inspections and preventative maintenance activities
? Working closely with other technicians to resolve complex repairs
? Completing all relevant job cards, paperwork and warranty documentation
? Maintaining high workshop standards and ensuring a safe working environment
? Supporting roadside breakdown and emergency repair work when required
What We're Looking For
? Level 3 qualification in Vehicle Maintenance & Repair (NVQ, City & Guilds or IMI)
? Previous experience working on HGVs and commercial vehicles
? Strong fault-finding and diagnostic skills
? Good understanding of DVSA standards and compliance requirements
? Full UK Driving Licence
? IRTEC accreditation would be advantageous but is not essential
Research shows many people won't apply unless they meet every single requirement. If you have the relevant experience and qualifications, we'd still love to hear from you.
What's On Offer?
? Up to £42,500 depending on shift pattern
? Overtime paid at 1.5x rate
? Saturdays paid as overtime
? 20 days holiday plus Bank Holidays
? Additional day off for your birthday
? Enhanced family-friendly policies
? Company pension scheme
? Life assurance
? Employee Assistance Programme and wellbeing support
? 24-hour GP access
? Ongoing manufacturer and technical training
? Internal mentoring and development programmes
? Career progression opportunities
? Recognition and reward schemes
? Long service awards and additional holiday entitlement
? Uniform provided
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a business that genuinely invests in its people and offers long-term career development within the commercial vehicle sector.
