We are looking for a strong Diagnostic Technician who genuinely understands how to find a fault—not just plug in a tool and replace parts. If you can interpret live data, navigate wiring diagrams, and solve complex module communication issues, we want to talk to you.

  Keep your weekends for yourself.
• Specialist Training: Access to on‑site training facilities to keep you at the forefront of the trade.
• Solid Basic Pay: A reliable base salary of up to £45,000 without the stress of "bonus-chasing."

You will be the go-to specialist for complex issues, with responsibilities including:

• Advanced Fault-Finding: Diagnosing petrol, diesel, hybrid, and EV vehicles.
• Systems Analysis: Interpreting CAN bus faults, sensor/actuator data, and scope readings.
• Electrical Mastery: Navigating wiring diagrams and resolving module communication errors.
• Complex Repairs: Carrying out high‑level electrical and mechanical fixes.
• Technical Leadership: Supporting junior technicians with guidance on difficult jobs.
• Accuracy: Maintaining high standards of efficiency while ensuring "right-first-time" results.

• Expertise: Proven diagnostic experience in a busy workshop or dealership environment.
• Software Fluency: Confident using modern diagnostic platforms and specialist software.
• Electrical Knowledge: A deep understanding of modern vehicle systems and circuitry.
• Qualifications: Level 3 NVQ (or equivalent) preferred.
  EV/Hybrid experience is a major advantage.
• Mindset: A methodical, professional problem‑solver who takes pride in their skillset.
• License: A full UK Driving Licence is essential.

If you’re a diagnostic professional who enjoys solving the "unfixable" faults and wants to be valued for your brain, not just your spanners, get in touch.
