  • Experience in the automotive or tyre industry, with strong mechanical aptitude
  • Proven leadership or people management experience

  • Full uniform, PPE, and structured on-the-job training
  • Generous staff and family discounts and buying privileges
  • A supportive team environment with a genuine safety-first culture
