• Experience working within strict regulations and procedures.
• Exceptional eye for detail and quality.
• Strong understanding of vehicle repairs and the desired outcomes.
• Knowledge of both car and commercial vehicle components.
• Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written.
• Ability to adapt to new and evolving technology.
