Are you a skilled vehicle technician looking for a new challenge with variety, autonomy, and the chance to travel across the UK? We're expanding our team and looking for a Automotive Fitter to join us in delivering high-quality installations of truck accessories and aerodynamic equipment to HGVs from our fleet fitment facility based near Doncaster, in Retford, DN22 0QL.

About the Role:

As a Automotive Fitter, you'll be based primarily from Doncaster, with occasional travel to customer sites across mainland UK (a vehicle will be provided as required). You'll be installing a range of aftermarket products to heavy goods vehicles, including:

  • Aerodynamic kits (side skirts, roof deflectors, etc.)

  • Interior and exterior truck fittings
  • General assembly and light fabrication work

This role is ideal for someone with HGV fitting experience, or a qualified car/HGV mechanic looking to transition into a more specialised and mobile role. You'll often be working independently, so initiative, professionalism, and problem-solving skills are key.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Perform on-site fitting and installations of truck accessories and aerodynamic systems
  • Ensure all work is completed to a high standard, safely and in a timely manner
  • Carry out electrical wiring and basic mechanical assembly
  • Liaise with the operations team for scheduling and reporting
  • Maintain your company equipment in excellent condition
  • Represent the company professionally at all times.

What We're Looking For:

  • Proven experience working on commercial vehicles – HGV experience preferred
  • Strong mechanical and basic electrical knowledge
  • Ability to read technical diagrams and follow fitting instructions
  • Full UK driving licence (essential)
  • Willingness to travel and stay overnight when required (accommodation and expenses covered)
  • A proactive, self-motivated approach with great attention to detail
  • Relevant qualifications (NVQ Level 2 or 3 in Vehicle Maintenance or similar) are desirable

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary based on experience, with overtime available
  • All travel expenses and overnight accommodation covered
  • Ongoing training and development opportunities
  • A supportive team and growing company with an excellent industry reputation
  • Annual bonus scheme based on company performance.
  • 24 Days Holiday PLUS Bank Holidays
  • After 3 years of service private Health care cover.
  • After 5 years of service full life cover (which pays out 4x your yearly salary should the worst happen)
  • After 10 years increased pension contributions.
  • Opportunities to progress and develop within a growing company.
