About Profile

This candidate is a qualified MOT Tester and Light Vehicle Technician with experience working within both main dealer and fast-fit centre workshop environments. Their background combines MOT testing knowledge with hands-on servicing and repair experience across a range of light vehicle maintenance duties within busy automotive workshops.

Currently working within a main dealer environment, they are responsible for carrying out Class 4 and 7 MOT tests, vehicle inspections and light repair work while supporting overall workshop productivity and maintaining DVSA compliance standards. Their experience also includes working within fast-fit centre operations where they assisted with MOT workflows, servicing and vehicle preparation tasks.

A major strength is their practical workshop experience and willingness to support wider workshop operations when required. Alongside MOT testing, they are experienced carrying out routine servicing, brake repairs, suspension work, exhaust replacement and general vehicle maintenance within fast-paced workshop environments.

They are fully qualified as a DVSA-certified MOT Tester for Class 4 and 7 vehicles and have also completed a Vehicle Technician Accredited Assessment. Their professional and reliable approach has helped them build strong workshop knowledge while maintaining high standards of safety, organisation and customer service.

Alongside technical ability, they also bring strong teamwork and communication skills and are comfortable working both independently and as part of a busy workshop team. Their positive attitude and eagerness to continue developing within the automotive sector make them a strong addition to any workshop environment.

Professional, hardworking and motivated, they are now looking for a long-term MOT Tester opportunity within a professional automotive business where they can continue building on their workshop and MOT testing experience.
