Job Description

This fast-fit tyre and service centre in Cape Town CBD needs a qualified mechanic who can handle services, repairs and electrical faults. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

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

What you'll actually do

  • Carry out roadworthy pre-checks on lights, brakes and steering
  • Coach the apprentice on your bay through basic services
  • Diagnose engine, ABS and airbag faults with an OBD-II diagnostic scanner
  • Do wheel alignments and balancing on the alignment bay
  • Quote extra work you find and pass it to the service advisor for approval

You'll need

  • Code 08 licence so you can road test cars
  • Your own basic toolbox
  • Confident with diagnostic scan tools and wiring diagrams
  • At least 3 years as a qualified mechanic in a dealership or workshop

On offer

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

How to apply for this job

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: trade test certificate, certified copy of your ID plus driver's licence.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 7 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Cape Town CBD.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • If you hit or beat your sold-hour target, say by how much. Workshop managers love that number.
  • Attach manufacturer training certificates. They can move you up a technician grade and pay band.
