About the Role of HGV Engineer
Are you an experienced PSV or HGV engineer looking for a less physically demanding role? We are recruiting a PSV MOT Engineer to join a friendly engineering team at a modern depot.
This role focuses on vehicle inspections and MOT preparation, rather than heavy repair work. You’ll help keep buses safe, compliant, and ready for the DVSA annual test, while enjoying a supportive workshop environment.
 
Key Responsibilities of the HGV Technician

• Carry out pre-MOT inspections to high maintenance standards
• Complete any minor remedial work identified during inspections
• Take vehicles to authorised testing stations and present them for MOT
• Complete annual Fire Risk Assessments on vehicles
• Assist with other engineering tasks such as rota inspections, defect rectification, and occasional breakdowns
• Maintain high standards of safety, quality, and documentation

This role is ideal for engineers who want to stay in PSV maintenance without heavy lifting or physically demanding work.
 
Requirements of the HGV Technician

• Qualification or apprenticeship in PSV/HGV Mechanical Engineering (Electrical knowledge a bonus)
• Experience working on PSV or HGV vehicles
• Strong understanding of MOT standards and vehicle compliance
• Ability to work independently and organise your own workload
