Technician/req

Job description

Sentry Mazda seeks to add two automotive technicians to its Mazda service department on Route 9 in Shrewsbury, MA. We are looking for one experienced technician and one entry-level technician who is looking to build a career.

If you are working at an independent shop or are a recent trade school graduate, this is your chance to get into a stable, family-owned dealership with a long term opportunity. We will pay you while you train. We also will consider candidates from other dealerships who would like to make the switch to more established brands from another dealer.

For the right candidate, this opportunity can be the chance to accelerate your career to the next level. If you are willing to work hard and are conscious of both high quality and efficiency in your work, you will do very well here.
