Apprentice Parts Advisor

Are you customer-focused with a passion for cars and looking to kickstart a successful career in the automotive industry?

- Parts Identification & Ordering: Training on electronic catalogs and systems to accurately identify, locate, and order automotive parts and accessories.
- Workplace Collaboration: Supporting our internal technicians and the wider aftersales team to ensure parts are delivered efficiently for vehicle repairs.
- Stock & Inventory Control: Assisting with receiving deliveries, stock checking, organizing inventory, and processing returns.
- Sales Support: Developing product knowledge to help maximize parts sales and deliver an exceptional customer experience.
