Job Description

Fix it right the first time: that is the job at this franchised passenger vehicle dealership in Alberton. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The site is in Alberton; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What you'll actually do

  • Update control unit software when the manufacturer releases a campaign
  • Write clear job card notes on what you found and what you fixed
  • Do wheel alignments and balancing on the alignment bay
  • Carry out roadworthy pre-checks on lights, brakes and steering
  • Replace clutches, brake pads, discs, shocks and timing belts
  • Carry out scheduled services to the manufacturer's checklist and interval

Must-haves

  • Your own basic toolbox
  • Code 08 licence so you can road test cars
  • At least 3 years as a qualified mechanic in a dealership or workshop
  • 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

Helpful, not essential

  • High-voltage hybrid or EV safety training
  • Brand-specific training certificates from a manufacturer academy
  • Automatic gearbox or DSG repair experience

On offer

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: trade test certificate plus certified copy of your ID.
  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 5 working days.
