About Profile

This candidate is an IMI Level 2 qualified Vehicle Technician who has completed their apprenticeship within a busy main dealer workshop. They have gained strong hands-on experience across servicing, vehicle maintenance, inspections, PDI work, fast-fit repairs and basic diagnostics.

They are confident carrying out routine servicing, vehicle health checks, brake repairs, steering and suspension work, tyre fitting, puncture repairs and general workshop duties. They have also supported larger repair jobs including engine and gearbox replacement work, giving them a good practical understanding of more involved mechanical repairs.

A key strength is their willingness to learn and progress. They are still early in their career but have already built a solid foundation within a professional workshop environment and are keen to continue developing into a fully qualified Vehicle Technician role.

They are comfortable using diagnostic equipment to identify and rectify basic mechanical and electrical faults and work with strong attention to detail while following workshop processes and health and safety standards.

Reliable, motivated and technically minded, they are now looking for a long-term Vehicle Technician opportunity where they can continue developing their skills within a professional automotive business.
