PART-TIME AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN
Due to one of our Team Retiring, a position has become available in our busy Richmond Workshop for a Part-Time qualified Automotive Technician.

This position would be 3 days a week (with provision for more if required). Days and hours negotiable.

Warrant of Fitness Licence would be an advantage, but not necessary as if you are the right fit to join our Team we would be willing to put you through Training for this.

For more information please phone 0277768836 or 5448652.

All Applications will be treated in the strictest confidence.

FYI

The expiry of driver licenses, Warrant of Fitness (WoFs), regos and other documents has been a hot topic since we entered Alert Level 4.

Great news - new legislative changes come into effect tomorrow (April 10) which provide a temporary extension for driver licences, endorsements, WoFs and CoFs. The changes also temporarily remove the requirement to have a current valid registration sticker.
