  • Diagnosing, repairing, and servicing vehicles to a high technical standard
  • Communicating clearly with the team and customers when required
  • Maintaining accurate digital job records and inspection reports
  • Upholding Bosch and DVSA quality standards at all times

To support transparency, most of our customers receive a vehicle inspection video as part of their service. You can view a real example

Why Join Us?

This is not a volume-driven, low-standard garage role.
This is an opportunity to join a serious operation, with real earning potential, long-term stability, and the chance to grow into profit share or partnership.

If you are an experienced MOT Tester who values professionalism, structure, and fair reward for your skills, we would like to hear from you.
