Fish Brothers (Swindon) Limited is proud to offer opportunities within 4 of the VW Group brands: VW Commercial Vehicles, Skoda, SEAT and CUPRA.

It's an exciting time for the VW group brands at Fish Brothers with our purpose built service facility now open, combining the skills and expertise from the Aftersales departments of VWCV, Skoda and SEAT/CUPRA.

We are excited to offer an experienced Technician the opportunity to join our dedicated and knowledgeable team.

At Fish Brothers our technical roles offer opportunities to work with a range of models and technologies, from Internal Combustion Engines through Hybrid Engines to fully Electric Vehicles supporting our customers with all of their mobility needs.

You will be committed to creating a bespoke and excellent customer experience taking ownership of each issue through to resolution. You will also enjoy generating innovative solutions to problems with a willingness to adopt new ideas rather than just relying on established approaches.
