Qualified mechanic wanted.

I help run a small independent garage/MOT centre in Royston, Herts. It's owned by a taxi company with a fleet of over 30 taxi's/minibuses ect. I've not been there long myself, and the garage has always been primarily used to maintain/repair the fleet. I've been employed as manager to promote and build up the MOT and service/repairs of customers vehicles. It's working well, the first week I was there I did just 4 MOT's....4 months later I'm now working from 7am to 9pm most days to try and get it all done! Obviously I can't continue to work like that, I need a fully qualified mechanic that can carry out his/her duties using his/her own initiative and maintain a high standard of work. An MOT tester would be preferable but not essential as we're happy to send the newbie off on a course! Please let me know if you're interested or know someone that could be/is. Thank you.

PS...Mods, if this thread is deemed "wrong" or in the wrong section please feel free to edit or move as necessary.

Dave, in this day and age you would think more people would take an interest?
