What our car mechanics say

Working abroad as a car mechanic can open new doors - but it’s important to feel supported. That’s why TPS Jobs helps EER-based mechanics make a smooth transition into stable, well-paid roles across the Netherlands.

I’ve worked on cars my whole life, but this was my first job outside my country. TPS made the move easy—they arranged my contract, helped with housing, and made sure I had a good place to work.

Whether you're working at a dealer, service center, or garage, you'll be using modern diagnostic tools and working on cars from brands like Volkswagen, BMW, Renault, and more—alongside experienced Dutch and international colleagues.

The team was very welcoming, and the garage has everything I need. My recruiter still checks in with me—it feels good to know I’m not alone.

At TPS, you get more than just a job, you get a steady income, clear communication, and a team that makes you feel at home.
