We are expanding and seeking a Mobile HGV Technician to join our team based around Cardiff and the surrounding area. This role supports our mission of delivering high-quality service to our growing customer base.

The Role:

As a Mobile HGV Technician, you will play a crucial role in maintaining and servicing our fleet of modern winter maintenance vehicles. Your primary responsibilities will include routine maintenance, repairs, and breakdown assistance. Experience working on Mercedes and DAF trucks is highly beneficial, as is holding an HGV Class 2 license or equivalent. In addition, we provide comprehensive product training to ensure you’re fully equipped to excel in this role. Typically from October to April the role is field based and during the summer months is based in our Cardiff workshop.

Key Responsibilities:

• Breakdown and Repair Services: Respond promptly to vehicle breakdowns and carry out repairs to minimise downtime and ensure our vehicles remain operational, especially during peak winter periods.

• You will be equipped with a high-specification van containing specialised tools and diagnostics equipment to support your work. Additional training and support will be available from our manufacturing facilities and local team to ensure you have the resources needed to succeed.

Seasonal Commitment:

This role requires flexibility, particularly in the winter months when demand can increase with the change in weather and the primary call-out season runs from early October to the end of April. During the summer months focus will be on preparing the fleet for the upcoming winter predominantly from our Cardiff workshop. This may include work based in the surrounding areas and other site locations as agreed.

About You:

The ideal candidate will have a minimum of 3 years’ experience repairing and maintaining HGV/PSV. Having prior experience as a Mobile HGV Technician or in a similar role would be advantageous. You will be a proactive, experienced commercial vehicle engineer who enjoys both independent work and collaboration with a team. You are comfortable with flexible hours, adapting to the seasonal nature of the job, and committed to maintaining high standards in vehicle servicing and customer support.
