Job Description

You'll service, diagnose and repair cars in a busy used car dealership workshop in Umlazi. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

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

What you'll actually do

  • Replace clutches, brake pads, discs, shocks and timing belts
  • Keep your bay, tools and special service tools clean and counted
  • Do wheel alignments and balancing on the alignment bay
  • Carry out roadworthy pre-checks on lights, brakes and steering
  • Write clear job card notes on what you found and what you fixed

Must-haves

  • Motor mechanic trade test certificate (Red Seal) or occupational certificate at NQF 4
  • 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

Helpful, not essential

  • High-voltage hybrid or EV safety training
  • Brand-specific training certificates from a manufacturer academy

What's in it for you

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

Applying, step by step

  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): certified copy of your ID, driver's licence plus brand training certificates.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 7 working days, usually by phone.

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.
  • Do not leave gaps unexplained. Say if you were working for yourself or doing mobile repairs.
