Vehicle Technician - Suzuki Ashton-Under-Lyne

We are looking for an experienced Vehicle Technician to join our team at Suzuki, Ashton-Under-Lyne.

This is a fabulous opportunity to join a family run business in the AM top 50 and represent one of our fantastic manufacturer partners.

We are looking for ambitious and driven individuals who are passionate in providing world-class customer service. This role comes with an achievable OTE of up to £44,000 per annum.

About The Business

Our business started over 60 years ago and has been in the same family ever since. From our very humble beginnings, we have grown to be in the top 50 car dealers in the country. Across our 26 businesses we have a stable workforce of over 600 people, many of whom have been with us for years. We are always on the lookout for nice, genuine people who genuinely care about our customers and have a can do attitude.

Our recruitment philosophy is that we recruit for attitude and train for skills, which means that although we’re often looking for specific technical skills, if you like working with customers and you are attracted by our Family Values of Fit, Fun, Family and Fearless, you’ll fit in well here and we’d like to hear from you even if you have no experience of the automotive industry.

We offer manufacture training for product knowledge to give you the technical skills you need, and we work with our own world class sales trainer who will give you everything you need to be a “top one percenter”.

We’ll expect you to work hard but in return we’ll offer you an industry leading package, flexible working hours and a real opportunity to progress: we prefer to promote from within and you will see this in everyone of our sites. You must possess an outrageous ambition to want to be the best and you won’t let anyone stop you.

About You

Your duties will depend upon your experience and training but as a skilled Technician/Mechanic, you will be able to undertake both minor and major mechanical faults (including engine repairs) and return vehicles back to manufacturer specification and standards.

We are welcoming applications from Technicians who are NVQ level 3 trained or equivalent. Experience working within a busy volume franchised dealer environment is an advantage but not crucial if you currently work at an independent garage/dealer. You must be able to work to the highest standards.

You will require a Full UK drivers’ licence and have your own tools.

What Will You Need To Succeed In The Role

• Drive, passion and enthusiasm to succeed.
• MOT Tester qualification would be an advantage but is not essential.
• Demonstrate capability and confidence in using equipment within the workshop safely.
• At least NVQ level 3 trained with work experience in a franchised dealer or independent garage.

What We Offer

• Uncapped earning potential.
• 30 days holiday (Including Bank Holidays), increasing with length of service.
• Pension Scheme.
• £25 contribution to eye tests.
• Cycle to work scheme.
• Retention scheme.
• Long Service Awards.
