  • Starting salary up to £50,000 per annum (negotiable pending experience) plus time saved bonus scheme. 
  • 40-hour week, Monday to Friday, with flexibility on start/finish times. 
  • Chance to join the UK's leading automotive accident repair networks with 100 independently-owned, fully-branded franchised bodyshops in the UK.
Our client, a large automotive accident repair centre based in the Cheltenham region, is currently looking to recruit an experienced and professional Multi-Skilled Vehicle Body Repair Technician to join their busy bodyshop.

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.
