Mon – Fri 8:30am to 5pm

Renault Cardiff seeks a Vehicle Prep Technician to join our dealership’s workshop.

The role will involve carrying our pre-delivery inspections (PDIs) and sales preparation work on new and used cars.

Pre-delivery inspections generally comprise fitting of number plates, check-listing vehicle functions & parts/accessory inventory on each vehicle, occasional minor repairs on new and used vehicles and arranging more extensive technical work to be carried out by our on-site specialist technicians when necessary. The regular portfolio of vehicles includes Renault and Dacia models as well as approved used cars from other makes and manufacturers. This will be a busy role in terms of volume, and varied in regard to the cars and vans being worked on.

We will consider candidates that are currently working in a similar capacity with another main dealer specialising in sales prep / pre-delivery inspection work, candidates from autocentres or quick-fit garages, or those that have recently completed apprenticeships and are seeking their first permanent vehicle technician role.

Ideal candidates will be level 3 qualified in City & Guilds Motor Vehicle Maintenance and Repair qualifications. You must be MOT qualified. Candidates should be equipped with their own tools and must hold a full UK Driver’s license.

The hours for this job are Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5pm with 30 min lunch, plus 1-in-4 Saturday mornings on rota, 8am to 12pm.

In return we offer a basic salary of £31,659 per annum. This comprises £30,600 pa for weekday work + £1,059 pa for 1-in-4 Saturday mornings paid at time-and-a-half. We operate a monthly efficiency bonus that is paid on top of this which adds circa £4,000-£6,000 pa to your earnings.

Benefits include 33 days holiday (25 days + 8 statutory), pension including life assurance, employee discounts on products and services, subsidised car option after 3 months’ service (loan plan scheme), share incentive scheme, manufacturer / brand training and superb career opportunities Group-wide.
