At Car Store, we do things a little differently. Rather than follow the crowd, we follow the Car Store way - something we like to call #carstorestyle. In the last two years we’ve achieved a lot. We’ve grown from one store to over 30, and won Used Car Retailer of the Year in 2018. Not bad for a few years’ work!

Our aim is to bring back the excitement in buying a car – it should be one of the best experiences in life and we want to keep it that way. Car Store makes the car-buying occasion fun from start to finish. We don’t call ourselves ‘staff’, we’re a crew and we are all ambitious and energetic.

You’ll make our customers feel well at home and receive an outstanding experience, as you give their beloved motor some well-deserved TLC in state-of-the-art workshops using the latest tools and technology.

Whatever your background or experience level, if you’re an automotive technical guru, you could be the Retail Vehicle Technician we’re looking for.
