I'm currently working with a well-established, family-run business that's been producing high-quality fruit for the UK market since the 1960s. While their roots are in agriculture, they now need someone who knows their way around engines-not just tractors and harvesters, but cars, minibuses, and trucks too.

They're looking for a Vehicle Mechanic to join their growing team and help keep their expanding fleet in top condition. Whether it's a delivery van, a 4x4, or a truck that needs servicing, your expertise will be essential in keeping everything moving smoothly on and off the farm.

What They're Looking For:

  • A natural problem solver with a hands-on attitude

  • Someone confident working independently, but also a strong team player

  • Reliable communicator-because good teamwork starts with clear communication

You'll Need Experience In:

  • Mechanical work on a broad range of vehicles, including cars, minibuses, and trucks

  • Diagnosing faults and carrying out repairs

  • Servicing and maintaining vehicles (MOT prep included)

  • Welding (a big plus!)

  • Driving farm machinery and forklifts (beneficial, but not essential)

  • A full UK driving licence is a must

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Inspecting and repairing a range of on-road vehicles, from cars to commercial vehicles

  • Attending breakdowns and carrying out emergency repairs

  • Scheduling and performing regular maintenance

  • Keeping accurate maintenance records

  • Managing parts and procurement cost-effectively

  • Supporting wider farm operations during peak times

  • Ensuring all work meets Health & Safety standards

What's in It for You?

  • Monday to Friday role

  • Overtime available

  • Great team environment

  • A chance to be part of a successful and supportive family-run business
