Motor Vehicle Technician

PT Motorsport is a busy and ambitious motor racing team and garage and our reputation is built on providing an excellent customer experience both at the track and here in the workshop. We are currently 10 strong, with exciting plans for expansion and we’ve now grown to the point where we need another full time, experienced mechanic. Our key business lines are:

  • Race support (mainly Caterham but also some Fun Cup and Morgan)
  • Track day support (mainly Caterham but also some Lotus and Clio Cup cars)
  • Garage/workshop services for road cars and track cars
  • Car sales – road and track

About you
We carry out all levels of support on cars, from a simple oil and filter service to full suspension set-ups to building a new Caterham from a kit of parts. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have experience with Caterhams, we can teach you that, but the successful applicant must:

  • Have a passion for sports cars and motor racing!
  • Be a team player! Teamwork and a positive attitude is essential here
  • Have 3 years experience as a senior mechanic/vehicle technician
  • Have excellent attention to detail and constantly work to the highest standards
  • Be able to communicate with customers, explain the work we’ve done and suggest further improvements
  • Be able to work to your own initiative and without constant supervision
  • Be able to manage your cars as projects and keep track of work and what parts are needed
  • Have a full UK driving license (a trailer license is a nice extra too but not essential)

Track work can be long and demanding and we finish when the job is done – we can’t be clock watchers here so you need to have a flexible approach to hours.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary plus performance related bonus
  • 22 days holiday plus Bank Holidays (excluding where there might be a race meeting)
  • Pension contributions
  • Ongoing training provided
  • Opportunities for career progression due to ongoing business growth

It’s fine if you don’t have a CV – just send us an email with your experience and explaining why you think you’d be a good fit here. Good luck!

Salary: £25,000.00 to £35,000.00 /year

Experience as a mechanic: 3 years (Preferred)
