About Profile

This candidate is an experienced automotive MOT Tester and Vehicle Technician with more than 20 years’ experience within vehicle maintenance, inspections and repair environments. Their background combines strong technical ability with newly obtained UK MOT qualifications and extensive hands-on mechanical experience across servicing, diagnostics and vehicle maintenance operations.

Having built a long-term career within vehicle maintenance and repair, they bring excellent practical knowledge across MOT testing, servicing, brakes, exhausts, suspension work, timing belts, clutches and air conditioning servicing. Their broad mechanical experience allows them to work confidently across a wide range of vehicle systems while maintaining high standards of workmanship and safety.

A major strength is their strong technical background and adaptability. Prior to relocating to the UK, they worked within a specialist vehicle maintenance environment responsible for maintaining and repairing fuel refuelling vehicles operating at a major international airport. During this time, they progressed through several senior technical positions into supervisory responsibilities, demonstrating strong work ethic, leadership ability and long-term stability.

They are fully qualified as a DVSA MOT Tester for Class 3, 4, 5 and 7 vehicles and have also completed the SEG Awards Level 2 Award in MOT Testing for Classes 4 and 7. Alongside this, they successfully completed a Vehicle Technician Accredited Assessment earlier this year, further strengthening their UK automotive qualifications and compliance knowledge.

Professional, reliable and highly motivated, they bring a positive attitude and strong willingness to continue developing within the UK automotive sector. They are now looking for a long-term MOT Tester opportunity within a professional dealership or workshop environment.
