• Inspect and test vehicles before they are released for shipment to customers.

• Support end-of-line vehicle quality and technical inspections.

• Resolve technical vehicle issues onsite and act as a key point of contact for complex faults.

• Work closely with international technical specialists when additional support is required.

• Support wider technical and vehicle-quality activities across the operation.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong hands-on experience within automotive maintenance, diagnostics or vehicle repair.

• Experience working with electric or hybrid vehicles is highly desirable.

• Strong automotive electrical/electronic fault-finding skills.

• Ability to both diagnose and physically repair faults.
