Parts Interpreter (Counter & Workshop)

The workshop runs on good bookings and the right parts. This franchised car dealership in Gqeberha needs you on that side. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

This post is Gqeberha-based, with most of your time spent at a franchised car dealership. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.
