Experienced Car Mechanic - Gearbox Specialist

Company: Re-Engineered Transmissions

Location: Rayleigh, Essex

Salary: Competitive, based on experience

Job Type: Full-Time, Permanent

Industry: Automotive / Motor Trade / Vehicle Repair

Company Overview:

Re-Engineered Transmissions is a highly established and well-regarded gearbox specialist based in Rayleigh, Essex. With decades of experience and a reputation for excellence, we specialise in the supply, removal, and refitting of manual, semi-automatic, and automatic gearboxes for a wide range of vehicles.

We are now looking to expand our team with a skilled and confident Car Mechanic to support the continued growth of our busy Essex workshop.

Job Description:

This is a hands-on role focused primarily on the removal and refitting of gearboxes. No gearbox building or internal repair experience is required - this is first and foremost a fitting and removal job. However, any gearbox rebuild or repair experience will be considered a bonus.

The successful candidate will also be required to diagnose and fault-find general vehicle or engine issues when necessary, though the main emphasis is on gearbox handling.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Remove and refit manual, semi-automatic, and automatic gearboxes
  • Work independently in a professional, well-equipped workshop
  • Fault-find and diagnose general vehicle or engine issues when required
  • Ensure all work meets high safety and quality standards
  • Communicate clearly with colleagues and workshop management

Candidate Requirements:

  • Proven experience as a car mechanic (minimum 3 years preferred)
  • Confident and competent working with various gearbox types
  • Strong mechanical knowledge across a range of vehicle systems
  • Ability to fault-find and problem-solve general vehicle issues
  • Able to work efficiently, independently, and to deadlines
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Gearbox building experience is not essential, but a strong advantage

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary (based on experience and skill level)
  • Full-time, permanent position with job stability
  • Supportive and friendly working environment
  • Big Opportunities for training and progression
  • Join a trusted name in the gearbox industry

Location:

Our workshop is based in Rayleigh, Essex, within the Brook Road Industrial Estate. Easily accessible and fully equipped for gearbox and vehicle repair work.
