Great Billing, Northamptonshire

From £36,986 DOE + Outstanding Pension & Benefits Package

Monday to Friday | 37 Hours Per Week | No Call-Outs

Looking for a stable, long-term technician role with great work-life balance and no weekend rota?

We’re recruiting for a Fleet Technician to join a busy workshop maintaining a varied fleet of commercial vehicles and specialist equipment.

This is a permanent, workshop-based role offering Monday–Friday working only, no breakdown call-outs, and the opportunity to work within a supportive and well-established team where your skills and experience will genuinely be valued.

The fleet includes:

  • Vans and commercial vehicles of varying sizes

  • Plant and specialist equipment

The role is predominantly vehicle-focused, although experience with either commercial vehicles or plant machinery will be considered.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Carrying out planned servicing, inspections, maintenance, and repairs

  • Diagnosing faults and completing preventative maintenance work

  • Ensuring vehicles and equipment remain safe, compliant, and operational

  • Using workshop and fleet systems to complete service records and work orders

  • Ordering parts and supporting efficient workshop operations

  • Occasionally travelling to nearby sites for workshop support when required

What We’re Looking For

We’re open to candidates from either a vehicle or plant background, provided you have relevant qualifications and hands-on maintenance experience.

You’ll ideally have:

  • City & Guilds or equivalent qualification in Vehicle Maintenance, Plant, Mechanical Engineering, or similar

  • Experience working on commercial vehicles, plant, agricultural, or specialist equipment

  • Strong fault-finding and maintenance skills

  • Good awareness of Health & Safety procedures

  • Basic IT skills for maintenance records and workshop systems

  • A proactive and team-focused attitude

What’s In It for You?
  • Monday to Friday working pattern with no weekend rota

  • 37-hour working week offering genuine work-life balance

  • No breakdown call-outs or reactive roadside work

  • Permanent, workshop-based role

  • Excellent pension scheme with a highly competitive employer contribution

  • Private healthcare package

  • Stable, long-term career opportunity within a well-established organisation

  • Opportunity to work across a varied and interesting fleet

  • Occasional overtime opportunities available

  • Secure role without dealership-style pressures or unrealistic targets

This is an excellent opportunity for a technician looking to step into a more stable and balanced role while continuing to use and develop their technical skills within a professional workshop environment.

Apply now for more information.

We endeavour to reply to every candidate, every time but if you haven’t heard back within 10 days, please understand that you have unfortunately been unsuccessful for this position, or the position has been filled.
