About Us

At Sutherland Automotive (part of the Leondis Automotive Group), we're not your average workshop — we're a professional, well-equipped, and values-driven team that takes pride in delivering dealership-level servicing with a personal touch.

Maintaining quality control and technical oversight on all repairs and services

Supporting, mentoring, and developing technicians to reach their full potential

Collaborating closely with the Service Advisors to ensure smooth communication and job flow

Monitoring workshop efficiency, productivity, and performance metrics

Understands workflow planning, productivity, and customer satisfaction

Has a proactive, solutions-based mindset with a calm and professional approach
