About The Business
Ditch the standard five-day grind and step into a premier, highly respected independent workshop that understands true work-life balance. We are a long-standing local institution known for our pristine compliance standards and exceptional community reputation. We completely reject the frantic, high-stress atmosphere of fast‑fit tracking centres and main dealers. Instead, we offer a structured, civilized pace where your time is respected, your technical expertise is valued, and your weekends start on Thursday evening!

Why This Position Is Different
- The Perfect Hybrid Split: Say goodbye to the mind‑numbing boredom of back‑to‑back testing, or the physical exhaustion of heavy mechanical overhauls all day long. Your schedule is perfectly optimized: conduct compliant MOT tests throughout the fresh morning hours, then transition into rewarding servicing and MOT repairs in the afternoon.
- Autonomy & Quality: We allocate jobs sensibly and provide realistic timescales. We value accurate diagnostics and flawless safety compliance over rushing cars through the bays to hit corporate targets.

- Running accurate, efficient, and fully DVSA‑compliant Class 4 MOT tests every morning.
- Transitioning in the afternoons to execute high‑quality routine vehicle servicing and general MOT failure repairs.
- Logging testing data seamlessly on the DVSA system and diagnosing mechanical/electrical defects accurately.
- Maintaining a clean, safe workspace and communicating repairs clearly with the front‑of‑house team.
Are You The One? (Requirements)
- DVSA Licence: Must hold a valid, active DVSA Class 4 MOT Testing Licence.
- Dual Skillset: Confident working as both a specialized tester and a competent service technician.
