If cars are your passion, then Trident Honda is seeking an apprentice car service technician to join our 3 year Honda Apprenticeship programme:
Trident Honda remains very much a family business at heart and being a family business means that we have a heart. This can be seen from the way in which we look after our staff and customers, Trident Honda enjoys enviably low staff turnover, as well as having industry-leading customer satisfaction.
Following an internal transfer, we require a qualified MOT tester to work alongside our highly-experienced, enthusiastic and busy technical team.
Welcome to Trident Honda Sales
Unlike most motor dealers, Trident Honda has exceptionally low staff turnover, with the result that the sales executive you bought from three years ago is likely to be the one that you will buy from next time. This stability in our sales team enables us to offer consistently high quality service.
Our Honda technician Martin Beagley has now completed an astonishing 40 years with Trident, beating the previous record set by sales director Roy Hubbard, who retired in 2014 having completed 39 years.
We are delighted to introduce our new sales executive, Timothy Saise, who joined us last month.
Trident Honda: When did you join the motor trade?
We are delighted to welcome Daryl Watson to our Service Team. Daryl has over 20 years motor trade experience, and, although new to the Honda franchise, is already proving to be an asset to the team.
Daryl lives locally in Addlestone, with his partner. When not at work, he is a keen follower of both motorsport and football, and, like many during the COVID-19 pandemic, has also recently taken up cooking.
At Trident Honda we recognise the importance to our business of delighting our customers so that they will return to us again and again. We also realise that the best form of advertising is that of customer recommendations, which is why our factory trained staff try that bit harder to give you the very best service and exceed your expectations.
To make your visit as convenient as possible, Trident Honda offers a loan car service, and local collection and delivery. And to ensure that you enjoy your newly-serviced Honda to the full, our staff will wash and vacuum it ready for your collection.
We currently have no other vacancies, but we are always pleased to hear from people keen to join our team. If you would like us to keep your details on record for any future opportunities, please Contact Us, alternatively why not consider visiting the NFDA Drive My Career website below.

We are delighted to introduce our new Aftersales Controller, Mark Holman, who joined us in December. Mark joins our service reception team in a new role that we have created in response to our expanding customer base.
We asked Mark to introduce himself:
Woking Rotary Club held their 12th annual Swimathon event at the Woking Pool in the Park on Sunday 13th October 2019.
Trident Honda has been the main sponsor for the event every year since its inception 12 years ago. This year we again had two teams competing in the event - The Trident Honda Otters, and between them managed 261 lengths, up from 224 last year.
Paul Barnett, Honda Sales Executive, retires today from Trident Honda, after 11 years service.
We are delighted to announce that our parts supervisor, Martin Williams, completed his 30th year of service on Wednesday.
Martin joined us in 1989 at the age of 30, recruited to the role of Senior Parts Person, under our parts supervisor Ian Essex. At the time our managing director was still our founder - Michael Roberts, and Trident Honda was an Austin Rover main dealer selling Austin Metro, Maestro, Montego, Rover 200 (based on the Honda Ballade) and the new Rover 800 (based on the Honda Legend). Trident Honda had celebrated its 25th anniversary in the previous year.
My interview was with MR (Michael Roberts) and afterwards he brought me down and introduced me to Ian. Ian and myself were very similar in attitude and outlook and we got on straight from the start.
Martin recollects his first day:
Established in 1963 by Michael Roberts, Trident Honda is today managed by his sons - Richard is our managing director, Christopher is our finance and IT director and James is our director of used car operations.
We are delighted to introduce our new sales executive, Mike Emery, who joined us in August.
We asked Mike to briefly introduce himself:
I joined my last position as sales executive for Honda in 2015. I enjoy working in the motor trade, it's more about people than you might imagine - doing the right job and matching people to the right car. I decided to apply to join Trident Honda, because of their reputation in both service and sales aspects, and their clear Company mantra of Customer First!
Woking Rotary Club held their 11th annual Swimathon event at the Woking Pool in the Park on Sunday 14th October 2018.
The Swimathon was opened by Cllr Will Forster, Mayor of Woking, and Rotary President Richard Sanderson early on Sunday morning and teams of 6 people arrived throughout the day to make their charitable contribution swimming as many pool lengths as they could over 55 minutes.
Trident Honda has been the main sponsor for the event every year since its inception 11 years ago. This year we also had two teams competing in the event - The Trident Honda Otters: one team comprising Louise Vincer, Erin Dethick, Finn Dethick and Peter Vincer, managed 110 lengths of the pool; the other team comprising Chris Monk, Mathew Brough, Justin Creber and Charlotte Cawser, managed 114 lengths of the pool.
Following the redevelopment of its showroom, Trident Honda has now installed a fully automatic defibrillator in its customer reception area, for the protection of its staff and customers.
Richard Roberts, managing director of Trident Honda, explains:
Whilst we have never experienced a cardiac arrest on our premises in our 55 years of trading, nevertheless it would seem 'heartless' to forego this simple and affordable protection for our staff and customers. It is very unusual in business to purchase an item in the hope that it will never be used, but it is very reassuring to know that, should the worst should happen, we have the equipment to potentially save a life.
Our Parts team offer an expert knowledge of Honda parts, coupled with a friendly professional service. Trident Honda holds an extensive stock of Honda parts and, with factory-linked systems, most parts are available either immediately or within 48-hours, and free local delivery.
Call our Parts team now on 01932 877209 or Contact Us on-line.
It is with great sadness that we have to say goodbye to our General Parts Manager, Ian Essex, after nearly 30 years of loyal service. One of the bedrocks of Trident Honda, Ian will be sorely missed by all, but we wish him every happiness for his new life in France.
Au revoir Ian!!
Despite the fact that Ottershaw has only been a Honda dealer since August 1st 2005, Martin Williams has managed to scoop a national top 5 parts place with Honda!
This Martin achieved by entering into the parts adviser 2006 competition run by Honda and answering a series of tough questions to get him a place in the finals; which are being held at the Honda Institute this Friday.
Chris Burkitt has joined Weybridge as Aftersales Manager. Chris replaces David Herridge who leaves later this month. During his time with us at Thames Ditton, Chris proved himself a most capable Aftersales Manager, and we are delighted he has chosen to rejoin the Trident Honda Team.
