Automotive Technician – 4-Day Week, High Standards, Proper Systems
Done with messy workshops and guesswork repairs?Good. We are too.
We’re a clean, organised, high-standard workshop looking for a strong mid-level automotive technician who wants more responsibility, better systems, and work they can actually be proud of.

- Clean, organised workshop with serious standards
- Heavy investment in tools and technology:
- Factory tooling
- Multiple scan tools
- 4-channel scope
- Onsite vapour blasting, Mig and Tig
