Are you an experienced Vehicle Technician, MOT Tester or Automotive Technician looking to utilise your technical expertise in a specialist inspection environment?
My client is seeking a Vehicle Inspection Technician to join their growing team based in Long Bennington.

Working as part of a professional inspection operation, you'll play a key role in ensuring vehicles meet the highest standards.
