Are you an experienced HGV Technician who wants strong basic pay - with the option to boost your earnings even further?
£50,000 basic. Monday to Friday. Weekends available as overtime.
This is a proper opportunity for a skilled technician who knows their worth.
The Role
You'll be joining a busy, well-run commercial vehicle workshop in the Southampton area maintaining a modern mixed fleet including DAF Trucks, Volvo Trucks, Scania, and Mercedes-Benz Trucks.
The workshop is fully equipped with up-to-date diagnostics and proper tooling. You'll be supported - not micromanaged - and given realistic workloads.

£50,000 basic salary
Monday to Friday core hours
Weekend overtime available (boost your earnings if you choose)
Overtime paid at enhanced rates
28 days holiday
Pension scheme
Stable, long-term employment
You control your earnings. Take the overtime if you want it - your weekends aren't mandatory.
What You'll Be Doing
Routine servicing & preventative maintenance
6-week inspections
MOT preparation
Diagnostics & fault finding
Mechanical & electrical repairs
Brakes, clutches, suspension & engine work
You'll be trusted to do quality work - no corner cutting.
What We're Looking For
Strong hands-on HGV experience
Confident with diagnostics
Able to work independently
Reliable and professional attitude
Qualifications are welcome but not essential - experience and ability matter more.
Why This Role?
Because skilled HGV Technicians are in high demand - and £50k basic with optional overtime in the Southampton area doesn't stay open for long.
If you're:
Underpaid
Forced into weekend rotas
Ready for a better workshop setup
Now's the time to move.
Location
Southampton area - easily commutable from Eastleigh, Totton, Romsey and surrounding areas.
