Vehicle Technician / Car Mechanic (VAG Specialist Focus) – £42k Solid Base, Bonus & NO Weekends!
Looking for a workshop that offers high earnings, unbeatable stability, and a proper work-life balance? Step away from high-pressure corporate main dealers and join a busy, well-established independent garage in Hersham where Saturdays and Sundays are strictly off-limits!
About Us
We are a premier, highly respected independent workshop in Hersham built on quality craftsmanship, team appreciation, and zero weekend work. While we service a diverse range of makes and models, we have a strong VAG focus, offering great daily exposure to modern VW, Audi, SEAT, and Škoda vehicles. Step into a supportive, modern bay equipped with updated diagnostic tools, realistic targets, and a culture that genuinely respects your craft.
What is in it for you:
- High Earning Potential: £42,000 solid basic salary + rewarding monthly performance bonuses (£45,000+ OTE)
- Reliable Bonus: Extra £300+ average monthly bonus built on realistic, achievable targets
- Reclaim Your Weekends: Strictly Monday to Friday ONLY (08:00 – 17:30)—keep every single Saturday and Sunday to yourself
- Specialist Exposure: Daily hands-on work with modern VAG group vehicles alongside a varied mixed fleet
- Complete Package: 20 days annual leave + full Bank Holidays off, company pension scheme, and full workwear/PPE provided
What you will be doing:
- Carrying out high-standard vehicle servicing, routine maintenance, and detailed multi-point health checks
- Performing general and major mechanical repairs, including brakes, suspension systems, clutches, and timing belts
- Utilising modern scan tools to logically trace and resolve electrical and mechanical faults
- Taking complete ownership of your bay to maintain our "fixed-first-time" reputation
- Requirements: Minimum 6 years of hands-on professional workshop experience, strong mechanical repair and diagnostic competence, and a valid full UK Driving Licence (VAG specialist experience is a fantastic bonus!)
Commutable Locations: This role is based in Hersham, making it an easy commute from Walton-on-Thames, Weybridge, Esher, Kingston upon Thames, and Woking.
