Careers at TFix

Old tech in. Better tech out.

We repair, refurbish and resell surplus IT — and we’re quietly obsessive about the paperwork that proves it.

No fuss, no jargon. Work gets finished, properly, every day.

What it’s like to work here

Small team. Big standards. Zero pretence.

It’s a workshop, a kettle, and a job that’s actually done at the end of the day.

Lean operations

No ping-pong tables

There’s a barcode scanner and a workbench. That’s the culture.

Long-term thinking

Doing this since 2008

We were refurbishing before it had a name.

Ethical and transparent

We’re conservative

We keep receipts. We keep paperwork. We keep audit trails. It’s who we are, and we make no apology for it.

Problem solving

Real responsibility, day one

You won’t be the “ideas person”. You’ll be the person who made the certificate match the serial number.

Hard work

We work hard here

It’s hard work and we don’t dress it up. If you want an easy ride, this isn’t it.

Open to ideas

Opinions welcome

If you see a better way, say it. We’re stubborn, not deaf.

Family atmosphere

It’s a family shop

The founder works alongside you, and kids are around some days — his, and some of the team’s. You’ll need to be cool with that.

Sensible dress code

Dress code: sensible

Hi-vis in goods in, tech gear in the lab, sensible in packaging, comfortable in the office. You’ll do a bit of all of it — so cargo trousers and boots make the most sense.

Always open to good people

The kinds of people we keep hiring

We don’t advertise much. When someone good turns up, we make room.

WEEE & Warehouse Technician Warehouse & WEEE

Triage, testing, cleaning, and grading kit for repair and resale. You’ll learn what a WEEE cage is and then never stop noticing them.

Driver & Collections Logistics

GPS-tracked vans, sealed transport, polite paperwork. You’ll become fluent in “goods-in windows”.

ITAD Ops & Data Destruction Operations

Data erasure and serialised certificates. You’ll hold NIST 800-88 closer than most people hold their phones.

Admin & Customer Ops Customer support

Bookings, chain of custody, client comms. You’ll be the calm voice when someone says “it’s just 40 laptops”.

Repair & Engineering Engineering

Diagnostics, refurb, buyback-grade testing. You’ll fix the laptop someone swore was “beyond saving”.

Something else entirely?

If you’re good and you care, we’ll find a drawer for you.

How we hire

We hire grit, not experience

What matters is how hardcore you are about solving problems and getting the job done — and whether you mean what you say. Mostly sorted within a week or two.

1

You send us a note

No CV required. Tell us what you’d actually like to do. We read every genuine one.

2

A cup of tea and a chat

We’ll meet you at the yard, show you around, and be straight about the less glamorous bits.

3

A trial that respects your time

You’ll know quickly if it’s a fit. No eight-round interview loops.

How we operate

The standards don’t move

Your word is the deal

Keep the customer happy and stay true to your word — without dropping our morals or principles to do it.

We document everything

Manuals, procedures, audit trails. We write it down and follow it. Meticulously.

Mistakes get fixed properly

No excuses, no gossip. We admit it, make sure it can’t happen again, then fix it however it needs fixing.

The good stuff

Perks. The real kind.

  • First dibs on the good stuff — before a rescued machine gets listed, staff get first look. Half the team work on kit they fixed themselves.
  • Free cables for life — we’re drowning in power cables, chargers and adapters. Take some. We’re not joking.
  • The shelf of shame — every repair that nearly beat us lives here. Trophy cabinet and cautionary tale in one.
  • Tech support for your mum — your parents’ laptop problems become our problems. Consider it an unofficial benefit.
  • Good tools, not cheap ones — we buy proper tools. You’ll never lose an afternoon to a stripped screw.
  • Unlimited tea — the kettle is sacred. Biscuits depend on the week we’re having.
A day at TFix

What a normal day looks like

First up

Plan & paperwork

Day starts at the boards — who’s on what — then the paperwork gets done first. WTNs, labels, the lot.

Then

Shipping

Outbound goes out on time. Packed, labelled, and accounted for.

Mid-morning

Sorting

Intake gets triaged — what’s resale, what’s for parts, what’s for the school run.

Afternoon

Repair

Bench time. Diagnose, fix, and clean until it earns a listing.

End of day

Listing & returns

Refurbs get listed, returns get dealt with. Nothing waits until tomorrow.

Questions people actually ask

Are there actual open roles at TFix?

We hire when the right person appears, so roles aren’t always advertised. Send a short note through the contact form and we’ll read it.

Do I need previous ITAD or WEEE experience?

No. We hire how hardcore you are at solving problems and getting the job done, not what’s on your CV. We’ll train you on the standards and the paperwork.

What’s the team actually like?

Busy, quietly dry-humoured, and thorough. The founder works alongside you, and there’s a kettle and a lot of spreadsheets.

What’s the hiring process like?

You send a note through the contact form (choose Careers), we invite you for a cuppa and a look around, then a short trial. Usually sorted within a week or two. No eight-round interviews.

None of the above?

Send us a short note anyway.

The best hires here never matched the job advert — mainly because we rarely write one. Tell us what you’d do and why.
