Hybrid and EV Technician (Light Vehicles)

Good with a scan tool and a torque wrench? This used car dealership workshop in Mamelodi needs you in a bay. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

This post is Mamelodi-based, with most of your time spent at an used car dealership workshop.

• Write clear job card notes on what you found and what you fixed
• Keep your bay, tools and special service tools clean and counted
• Quote extra work you find and pass it to the service advisor for approval
• Diagnose engine, ABS and airbag faults with an OBD-II diagnostic scanner
• Replace clutches, brake pads, discs, shocks and timing belts
• Coach the apprentice on your bay through basic services

• Code 08 licence so you can road test cars
• Able to meet flat-rate or sold-hour targets

• Staff discount on parts and services
• Tool allowance or tool insurance
• Pay at or above the motor industry bargaining council rates
