- Keep up to date with new vehicle technology and maintenance techniques, and take part in the training we provide.
- Work as part of the workshop team and learn from experienced technicians.
- Work safely and tidily, with consideration for colleagues, and help with the weekly workshop clean-up.
- Look after workshop tools and equipment day to day, and report any defects.
- Carry out other duties assigned by management.
What we’re looking for
- The right to work in Malta. We sponsor work permits only in rare cases, for exceptional candidates.
- A recognised motor vehicle qualification — MCAST or equivalent.
- At least two years’ experience as a motor vehicle technician or mechanic.
- Strong technical skills in both mechanical and electronic systems.
- Confident using electronic diagnostic equipment to find faults.
- Knowledge of VRT requirements.
- A full, clean driving licence.
- Punctual, honest and organised, with an eye for detail.
It helps if you have
- Specialist training from a vehicle manufacturer or franchise.
- Previous experience in a similar role in the motor industry.
What we offer
- Specialist training — in-house and external — fully sponsored by Liaco.
- Pay in line with your experience and ability.
- A place in an established workshop team, with a company founded in 1966.
