Job Description

You'll service, diagnose and repair cars in a busy franchised passenger vehicle dealership in Centurion. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

You'll be based at a franchised passenger vehicle dealership in Centurion. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.

  • Replace clutches, brake pads, discs, shocks and timing belts
  • Quote extra work you find and pass it to the service advisor for approval
  • Road test vehicles before and after repairs
  • Diagnose engine, ABS and airbag faults with an OBD-II diagnostic scanner
  • Keep your bay, tools and special service tools clean and counted

You'll need

  • 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
  • Code 08 licence so you can road test cars
  • Able to meet flat-rate or sold-hour targets
  • Your own basic toolbox
  • Motor mechanic trade test certificate (Red Seal) or occupational certificate at NQF 4

Extra points for

  • Automatic gearbox or DSG repair experience
  • Air-conditioning regas experience with SAQCC Gas registration
  • High-voltage hybrid or EV safety training

What's in it for you

  • Productivity bonus on sold hours above target
  • Tool allowance or tool insurance
  • Manufacturer training courses paid by the dealer
  • Pay at or above the motor industry bargaining council rates
