Looking for a Change?
If youre an MOT Tester who wants more than just clocking in and out, this could be worth your time. Were helping a respected local garage find someone who can bring accuracy, honesty, and a steady hand to their MOT bay. The role comes with a straightforward setup: good hours, fair pay, and the chance to be part of a business that values people as much as cars.
Your day will centre on MOT testing for cars and light commercial vehicles, making sure safety standards are upheld without compromise. Beyond the test itself, there will also be occasional servicing and repair work. Its a role for someone who values doing things properly and appreciates the trust that customers place in their tester.
The garage is an independent, family-focused business with deep roots in the Shrewsbury area. Theyve built a loyal customer base by offering straightforward advice, reliable repairs, and a no-nonsense approach to pricing. Their workshop is well-equipped, the team is experienced, and the atmosphere is professional without being corporate. Its the kind of place where people tend to stick around.
