New Yesterday
*VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS/MASTER TECHNICIAN*
*AUDI | VW | BMW | MERCEDES | SKODA | SEAT | MINI*
*Our Technicians do not work to a bonus scheme! We prefer our technicians to focus on delivering exceptional work.*
Do you get a kick out of diagnosing and repairing issues that other Master Technicians simply can't fathom? Are you a problem solver with an inquisitive mind, who won't rest until the unfixable has been fixed? Applicants from both Main Dealer and Independent Workshops are welcomed.
*ABOUT US*
PSC are Gloucestershire’s premier Independent Specialist German Vehicle Service Centre. We’re an innovative, forward-thinking and professional team with a commitment to delivering a consistently high quality and accuracy in our work. We’re constantly increasing and evolving our product ranges, to stay up to date in the changing world of vehicle technology.
We pride ourselves on our ability to successfully diagnose and rectify faults that others run away from; and our clients trust us to go the extra mile for their vehicle.
Our 10 ramp workshop at PSC is a bright, clean, well equipped and professional environment. We take great pride in how it’s run and the quality of work that’s completed. You’ll have the opportunity to work with highly skilled technicians and be equipped to utilise the most up to date technology. We use BMW ISTA, VW ODIS, Mercedes Star diagnostics and Picoscope.
We’re seeking an additional experienced Diagnostics Technician to join our existing 7 technician team (4x service/MOT Techs and 2x Diagnostic Techs), whose experience and craft will enhance our delivery of the highest standards of workmanship and customer service.
At PSC, we’ve broken with convention and don’t open weekends. We believe our team deserve a full weekend for themselves – a chance to spend time with friends and family, to relax, regroup and prepare for the busy week ahead. Because their welfare, health and focus is important: not just for them, but for our clients and their vehicle.
*ABOUT THE ROLE*
*Full time, permanent – 8.30am-5pm Monday-Friday*
We offer a great working environment, a competitive salary and the opportunity to help shape an ambitious and innovative company.
This role comes with:
* £47,000 per annum protected salary – our technicians do not work to a bonus scheme!
* 33 days holiday per annum [including 8 national Bank Holidays]
* Contributory Company Pension Scheme
* Opportunity to attend regular professional training, including courses at the manufacturers’ own training centres, from premium model servicing, Dual Clutch Transmissions through to the latest in Hybrid & Electrical diagnostics and maintenance
Responsibilities include:
* Fault finding diagnostics
* Servicing and repair of our German brand vehicles, including minor and major mechanical work
* Work as part of a team and assist other technicians to help deliver excellent customer service
* Vehicle inspections and reports
* Road testing vehicles, and proactively identifying potential risks
*ABOUT YOU – HAVE YOU GOT THE MINERALS?*
You're a natural born problem solver. You get a kick out of diagnosing and repairing uncommon, undocumented issues that ordinary “Master” technicians cannot fathom. In this role you can expect to diagnose issues that even the manufacturers and main dealers haven't come across yet so if you're solely reliant on "guided fault finding" you'll be entering uncharted territory here!
We’re not a main dealer – by this, we mean we don’t throw components at cars hoping for a fix. We prove our theories on suspected failed components before we replace them.
*Your experience includes:*
* Utilising manufacturer diagnostic systems
* Ability to read and decipher wiring diagrams to help trace issues
* Confidently log, read and interpret historical and live data collected from a problem vehicle to achieve an accurate diagnosis, with a proactive attitude, and an ability to take initiative to resolve an issue
* Excellent organisation and attention to detail, and a care for keeping your workspace safe and clean
* Brilliant time management, with the ability to juggle an ever-changing and often demanding workload
* Proactive member of a team, who thrives in a busy environment
* Commitment to exceeding every client's expectations
* Fully qualified (minimum City & Guilds / NVQ Level 4), with factory main dealer experience and ideally be trained to a Senior/Master/Diagnostics Technician standard with a proven pedigree and track record in diagnostics. Candidates who can demonstrate extraordinary diagnostics skills from a similar exceptional independent specialists will be considered.
* Full UK driving licence
* Your own tools - We'll provide the toolbox as you’ll have a fully fitted workstation ready to go with cabinets, tool drawers, overhead lockers, etc.
*What comes next?*
We will invite successful candidates to an interview. If you sail through the interview stage, we'll likely ask you to demonstrate your diagnostic skills during a short practical assessment on a test vehicle.
*We look forward to hearing from you!*
