About Profile

This candidate is a Level 3 qualified HGV Technician with more than 10 years’ experience working across commercial vehicle workshops, tanker maintenance and heavy vehicle repair environments. Their background combines strong mechanical repair knowledge with hands-on experience carrying out MOT preparation, diagnostics, servicing and specialist ADR tanker repairs.

Currently working within a busy HGV workshop operation, they are responsible for servicing and maintaining a wide range of tanker vehicles including chemical tanks, fuel tankers and skeletal trailers. Their day-to-day duties include MOT preparation, inspections, preventative maintenance and repair work while ensuring all vehicles remain compliant and operational.
