Senior/Diagnostic Technician

“Because ‘clear codes and hope’ isn’t a career path.”

Vehicle Technician / Diagnostic Technician

Cranleigh Area | £50,000–£55,000 Basic + £6,000+ Bonus | Monday–Friday (Optional Saturday Overtime Available)

If you enjoy solving tricky faults more than explaining to customers why their “definitely just started making that noise yesterday” car sounds like it’s auditioning for a scrapyard role — this one’s for you.

We’re recruiting on behalf of a respected, professional independent garage in the Cranleigh area, known for quality workmanship, strong diagnostics, and a team that actually knows its way around a multimeter.

What’s on offer?

• £50,000–£55,000 basic salary
• Minimum £6,000 annual bonus
• Monday–Friday, 8:00am–5:00pm
• Optional Saturday overtime available for those who like extra hours (or extra bacon sandwiches)
• 22 days holiday + Bank Holidays
• Long Service Leave increasing to 25 days after 3 years
• Loyalty bonus scheme:
  • £750 after year 1
  • Increasing by £750 per year
  • Up to £3,750 annually after 5 years (for sticking around longer than most dashboard warning lights)

The Role

You’ll be working across a broad range of mechanical and diagnostic tasks, including:

• Advanced diagnostics and fault finding (a.k.a. “why is this happening now?”)
• Mechanical repairs and servicing
• Tracking down intermittent faults that only appear when the customer is nearby
• High-quality repairs across a variety of makes and models

About You

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is confident with diagnostics and mechanical repairs
• Enjoys fault finding without needing to “clear codes and hope”
• Has experience with prestige vehicles
• JLR and German brand experience would be a strong advantage (they do like to keep things interesting…)
• EV knowledge is beneficial, but curiosity and willingness to learn go just as far

The Workshop

This is a professional independent garage where standards are high, tools are decent, and comebacks are taken personally (in a professional way… mostly). The team takes pride in doing things properly, not just quickly.

If you’re looking for a well-paid, stable role with a strong bonus structure, great team environment, and the option to pick up extra hours when it suits you, this could be a great fit.

Apply today and let’s get you onto something a bit more rewarding than chasing intermittent ABS faults all day in your current place.
