Job Description

Fix it right the first time: that is the job at this fast-fit tyre and service centre in Somerset West. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

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

What you'll actually do

  • Carry out scheduled services to the manufacturer's checklist and interval
  • Keep your bay, tools and special service tools clean and counted
  • Carry out roadworthy pre-checks on lights, brakes and steering
  • Write clear job card notes on what you found and what you fixed
  • Road test vehicles before and after repairs

What you need

  • Code 08 licence so you can road test cars
  • Neat with customer vehicles: seat covers, floor mats and no grease marks
  • Your own basic toolbox
  • Confident with diagnostic scan tools and wiring diagrams

What's in it for you

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

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): driver's licence plus certified copy of your ID.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

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

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

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