Recently qualified as a Vehicle Technician and looking for a workshop where you can build on what you learnt during your apprenticeship?

ACS Automotive Recruitment is working with an independent Mercedes-Benz specialist near Paddock Wood to recruit a Junior Vehicle Technician. The workshop looks after everything from 1950s classics to modern Mercedes models. You’ll build confidence with servicing and everyday repairs, work alongside experienced technicians and get involved in more complex jobs as your skills develop.

What you’ll be doing

  • Carrying out routine servicing, vehicle inspections and maintenance.

  • Completing straightforward mechanical repairs, including brakes and other common replacement work.

  • Assisting experienced technicians with fault-finding and more involved repairs.

  • Getting exposure to specialist work, including classic Mercedes projects and engine rebuilds.

  • Keeping job cards up to date and taking pride in the quality of your work.

What we’re looking for

  • A recently qualified Vehicle Technician with hands-on workshop experience gained through an apprenticeship or similar practical route.

  • A good grounding in routine servicing and basic mechanical repairs.

  • Someone who asks questions, takes feedback on board and works well in a small team.

  • A genuine interest in cars and a willingness to learn the specifics of working on Mercedes-Benz vehicles.

Previous Mercedes-Benz experience isn’t essential. We’re happy to hear from technicians who have trained in a main dealership or an independent garage.

If you’d like to work on both classic and modern cars and learn from technicians who know them inside out, apply with your CV or contact ACS Automotive Recruitment for a confidential chat.
