Automobile Mechatronics Employee EFZ Commercial Vehicles (m/f/d)

🔧 Passion instead of standard. In Bassersdorf, you don't work on small cars, but on buses, trucks and vans – vehicles that move people and goods every day and therefore cannot tolerate a half-measure diagnosis. Whether you call yourself a bus mechanic, truck mechanic or use the official title Automobil-Mechatroniker/in EFZ: with us, you are in the right place.

For over 100 years, Gebr. Knecht AG has been a reliable partner in terms of commercial vehicles, construction machinery, bodywork and lettering.

100 years old, but no standstill: We are not an anonymous large corporation, but an owner-managed family business – decisions are made here, not somewhere in a headquarters

Versatility instead of a one-way street: Commercial vehicles, construction machinery, bodywork – with us you get to know more than just one vehicle category

Growth with perspective: We are expanding – you don't just join a finished operation, but help shape it

A team that stays: Our long-standing employees speak for themselves – short decision-making paths and a family-like atmosphere are not just clichés for us
