Paint Sprayer - Aston Martin

Join the team behind one of the world's most iconic luxury automotive brands. Aston Martin is seeking skilled and passionate Paint Sprayers to join our Paint Shop, where craftsmanship, attention to detail, and quality are at the heart of everything we do.

As a Paint Sprayer, you will play a key role in delivering vehicle bodies painted to the exceptional standards and specifications required across our production operations. Working within a highly skilled team and reporting to the Group Leader, you will be responsible for inspecting, preparing, and spray-painting vehicles throughout various stages of the paint process, including Etch Primer, Primer, Base Coat, and Clear Coat applications.

The successful candidate will be responsible for inspecting vehicle bodies to identify and address any defects before painting, preparing vehicles for the spray process through adhesion promotion, degreasing, and tacking off, and applying paint finishes to Aston Martin's exacting quality standards. You will ensure the correct application of base and clear coats, remove contaminants between paint stages, and maintain spray equipment, booths, hoods, and airlines to support efficient production. The role also requires close collaboration with Group Leaders, Lead Technicians, and service partners to resolve issues that may impact productivity or quality. Flexibility to support other areas of the paint process, including preparation and polishing activities, may be required based on business needs.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
