Job Opportunity: Mechanic / Engineer / Car Builder at Tomcat Motorsport Ltd

Tomcat Motorsport Ltd is seeking a skilled individual for a diverse role involving building and repairing road and competition cars. This is not a typical garage mechanic position; it includes:

1. Building and partially building Tomcat road and competition cars
2. Repairing racing damage and servicing vehicles
3. Working on off-road and track competition vehicles, including repairs, builds, and fabrication

The ideal candidate will be a capable mechanic with resourcefulness and problem-solving skills. Experience with electrical systems, light fabrication, fibre glass repairs, welding, and machining (preferred but not essential) are desirable.

The successful applicant will work under the project engineer alongside other team members, both permanent and self-employed.

This role can be part-time, suitable for a qualified mechanic seeking a change or a skilled car builder looking for part-time work in retirement. Road and off-road testing will be part of the role, so a clean UK driving license is required.
