Tired of toxic workshop cultures and high-pressure “bonus-chasing”? We are hiring a Service Technician or Car Mechanic to join a friendly, independent garage that has been a local staple for over 75 years. Whether you are an experienced pro or a technician with 2+ years of experience looking to step up, this is a workshop where you are respected, trained, and treated like a professional.

  • The Essentials: Free on-site parking and a relaxed, RMI-approved working environment.

What You Will Be Doing

  • True Variety: Routine servicing and mechanical repairs across a massive range of makes and models—no two days are the same.
  • Technical Growth: Using the latest diagnostic tools with full training provided to ensure you stay ahead of modern vehicle tech.
  • Core Repairs: Handling brakes, suspension, exhausts, tyre fitting, and comprehensive vehicle health checks.
  • Quality Over Speed: Working in a pace-over-pressure environment where doing the job right the first time is the priority.

About Us

We are a highly respected independent garage that balances traditional mechanical expertise with modern technology. We understand the physical nature of the job, which is why we offer a 30-minute lunch plus two 15-minute breaks—we know a rested technician is a better technician. If you want a stable, “forever” career with a management team that actually backs you and knows your name, you’ll find it here.

Are You The One?

  • You have at least 2 years of workshop experience as a Mechanic or Technician.
  • You are reliable, hands-on, and take genuine pride in your workmanship.
  • You want a supportive, low-stress culture where your voice is heard.
  • You are based in or near Haywards Heath and want a long-term role.
