• Handling major mechanical repairs, including timing belts, timing chains, wet belts, and clutches.
• Managing chassis work, performance upgrades, brakes, suspension, and steering setups.
• Requirements: NVQ Level 3 in Vehicle Repair (or equivalent qualification), strong mechanical repair competence, logical diagnostic skills, and a valid full UK Driving Licence (a DVSA MOT licence or prior German/JLR brand experience is a big bonus!).
