At Car Store, we do things a little differently. Rather than follow the crowd, we follow the Car Store way - something we like to call #carstorestyle. In the last two years we’ve achieved a lot. We’ve grown from one store to over 20, and won Used Car Retailer of the Year in 2018. Not bad for a few years’ work!
Our aim is to bring back the excitement in buying a car – it should be one of the best experiences in life and we want to keep it that way. Car Store makes the car-buying occasion fun from start to finish. We don’t call ourselves ‘staff’, we’re a crew and we are all ambitious and energetic.
Getting your car maintained or fixed shouldn’t be scary. As Retail Technician, you’ll play a key role within our Aftersales functions to help our customers feel well at home and receive an outstanding experience, as you give their beloved motor some well-deserved TLC in state-of-the-art workshops using the latest tools and technology.
Whatever your background or experience level, if you’re an automotive technical guru, you could be the Retail Technician we’re looking for. Whether you’re newly qualified, semi-skilled, and MOT tester or even a master technician/ mechanic, from a prestige, volume franchised or independent garage, as long as you’re dedicated to providing the best possible service getting your hands dirty, you’ll fit right in.
