Job Description:
Senior Vehicle Technician
£35,000 – £45,000 DOE · Monday to Friday, no weekends
We're looking for experienced technicians for both of our branches - Redditch & Bromsgrove. This is a step up from a general mechanic role, we want someone who can work at pace, unsupervised, and who other technicians can go to when they're stuck.
We're a busy independent garage with two sites in the heart of Worcestershire.
The work:
We're a high-throughput workshop, not a restoration shop. Our bread and butter is:
- Servicing and repairs across all makes
- Clutches, cam belts and wet belts.
- Brakes, suspension and steering
- Tyres and fast-fit work
- Diagnosing faults accurately and efficiently
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We deliberately don't take on engine rebuilds, gearbox rebuilds or multi-day strip-downs.
What we need from you:
- NVQ Level 3 in Vehicle Maintenance & Repair, or time-served equivalent
- Several years' experience in a busy workshop, independent or main dealer
- Confident on clutches and belts without needing to be talked through them
- Genuinely capable on diagnostics, able to read live data and work a fault through logically, not just plug in a code reader
- Comfortable working on your own initiative and setting the standard for the workshop
- Reliable attendance and timekeeping, we're a small team and one person not turning up puts the whole day behind
- Full UK driving licence
