Multi-Skilled Vehicle Body Repair Technician Vacancy in Gloucester
  • Salary: £49,920 basic salary with OTE up to £60,000.
  • Hours: 40 hours per week. Monday to Friday only. Very flexible with starting and finishing times. 
  • Benefits: Enhanced annual leave allowance, retailer discounts, salary sacrifice car scheme, industry-leading training, and fantastic career prospects with one of the UK’s largest comprehensive automotive accident repairers.
Our client, one of the UK’s largest comprehensive automotive accident repairers, is currently looking to recruit a Multi-Skilled Vehicle Body Repair Technician to join their busy centre in Gloucester. 

Reporting to the Bodyshop Manager, you shall be carrying out body repair work on customers’ vehicles to a high-quality standard, and your responsibilities shall include:
  • Remove damaged vehicle panels/parts for repair.
  • Smooth out minor dents in vehicle panels/parts.
  • Fill small holes or rusted areas with resin, body solder and other compound fillers.
  • Fit new panels where significant damage means the panel cannot be repaired.
  • Refinishing the surfaces of repaired panels/parts.
  • Remove old paintwork, sealant and rust.
  • Cleaning the repair area and masking off other parts of the vehicle to be left alone.
  • Match the colour, and then prime and paint spray the repair area.

  • Strip and fit body parts
To be eligible, you will need to live within a reasonable commuting distance of Gloucester and have a UK driving license with minimal points. A relevant IMI/NVQ qualification in Vehicle Body Repair would be highly advantageous; however, our client is open to considering candidates with no formal qualifications but a strong and steady level of practical experience in vehicle body repair across MET, panel, and paint disciplines.

Overall, you will need to be able to work independently, completing full repairs to a high standard, deliver excellent workmanship with strong attention to detail, and thrive in a fast-paced, team-focused workshop environment. Relevant qualifications/accreditations (ATA/NVQ) would be desirable but are not essential.

What's in it for you? For your hard work as a Multi-Skilled Vehicle Body Repair Technician, our client is offering:
  • Basic salary up to £49,920 with OTE up to £60,000
  • Access to a monthly uncapped performance-related bonus with a guaranteed average bonus when you're on holiday.

  • Fantastic long-term career prospects/job security with a large multi-site business that is itself part of a larger company. 
  • 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday only. Very flexible with starting and finishing times.
