Employer Description:We have a tradition of excellence from over 120 years of trading and offer fantastic quality, exceptional value and excellent customer service. Our company had an unlikely start back in 1899 - specialising in tar spraying machines!
Whilst working on a project at Petworth, young engineer FG Barnes heard of a small business for sale in Godalming. The first few years of business saw mostly maintenance of the local council's steam road rollers, but then the business began to grow.
Due to his engineering skills FG Barnes became involved in the maintenance of the new ‘horseless carriages' beginning to appear on the scene. The roads at the time had very different surfaces to the tarmac of today and Barnes worked on inventing a machine to spray and brush liquid tar onto a stone road surface. The machine then bound the stone particles together to form a dust-free surface which was quite an innovation at the time.
The engineering and car businesses grew and grew and after World War One, diversified into hire cars and a driving school. In 1920, Barnes got the agency for Vulcan cars and commercials and formed the first link with General Motors by becoming a Chevrolet dealer. By 1922, both sons joined the business and in 1936 they opened the site at Guildford.
The post-war years saw the passing of FG Barnes. His two sons then took over the company and continued to supply Vauxhall and Bedford vehicles. In 1971 a larger premises was sought in Slyfield Green and so the industrial estate expanded.Working Hours :Monday - Friday, 8.30am - 5.30pm.Skills: Communication skills,IT skills,Attention to detail,Organisation skills,Problem solving skills,Analytical skills,Team working....Read more...

most experienced technicians may earn up to £33k per year.Employer Description:Founded by Managing Director Michael Nobes, and originally Richmond Hyundai in 1995, the Richmond Motor Group has seen incredible growth in a relatively short period of time, collecting many awards and accolades along the way. The government scrappage scheme in 2010 saw Richmond become the UK's Number 1 scrappage dealer,
taking hundreds of old and inefficient vehicles off the road and replacing them with cleaner, greener models, and the business has been Europe's number one Hyundai dealer for several years.
The business has developed from the small Portsmouth showroom to today’s multi-site, multi-million pound dealerships on the South Coast. Richmond Motor Group now operates from 7 locations which includes 13 showrooms covering Hampshire, West Sussex and Surrey and works with 6 different franchises.
Despite the significant growth of the business, our values remain the same and the family friendly feel of the original business continues and we make sure to put our customers at the heart of our business.Working Hours :Monday – Friday 8:30am – 5pm with a 30 minute lunchSkills: Communication skills,Attention to detail,Organisation skills,Team working,Initiative,Good work ethic,Passion for automotive....Read more...
