Job Description

Good with a scan tool and a torque wrench? This fast-fit tyre and service centre in Pretoria East needs you in a bay. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll be based at a fast-fit tyre and service centre in Pretoria East. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

  • Coach the apprentice on your bay through basic services
  • Do wheel alignments and balancing on the alignment bay
  • Road test vehicles before and after repairs

Must-haves

  • Neat with customer vehicles: seat covers, floor mats and no grease marks
  • Motor mechanic trade test certificate (Red Seal) or occupational certificate at NQF 4
  • Able to meet flat-rate or sold-hour targets
  • Confident with diagnostic scan tools and wiring diagrams
  • Code 08 licence so you can road test cars
  • At least 3 years as a qualified mechanic in a dealership or workshop

What you get

  • Manufacturer training courses paid by the dealer
  • Staff discount on parts and services
  • Productivity bonus on sold hours above target

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): brand training certificates, trade test certificate plus driver's licence.
