If you're the person who can't walk past a car without checking out the body lines, paintwork and panel gaps… this could be the job for you.
We're looking for a young skilled Bodywork Specialist with a genuine passion for cars to join a company with 50+ years of experience working on some seriously impressive vehicles. And we're not talking about fitting bumpers all day. This is proper bodywork and restoration — preparing, repairing and perfecting high-end and specialist cars where attention to detail really matters.
WHAT YOU COULD BE WORKING ON
Think Porsche. Ferrari. Lotus. Jaguar replicas. Race cars. Motorsport projects. The company has worked across some of the biggest names and categories in motorsport, including Formula 1, Formula 3, British Touring Cars, World Touring Cars and GT racing. One day you could be prepping a Ferrari panel. The next, you could be repairing a race car part that literally can't be bought anymore. That's where your skill comes in. Imagine a 50-year-old race car arrives with a damaged wing and there isn't a replacement available. You don't just order another one. You repair it. Rebuild it. Shape it. Fill it. Prep it. And get it looking like it was never damaged. That's the level of craftsmanship we're looking for.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- Fibreglass
- Carbon Fibre
- Aluminium
- Steel
- Plastics
- Fillers & primers
- Panel preparation & masking
- Bodywork repairs and restoration
- Precise edge-to-edge filler work
- Preparing vehicles/components for high-quality refinishing
This is a body repair role — not a vehicle fitting role. We're looking for someone who has built their skills through hands-on experience and genuinely enjoys getting bodywork spot on.
YOU'LL SUIT THIS ROLE IF...
- Cars are more than just a job to you
- You've got solid hands-on body repair experience
- You know your way around filler, primer and preparation
- You've worked with different materials
- You care about getting the finish right
- You're comfortable working on intricate, high-value vehicles
- You take pride in your work
- You'd rather spend your day working on a Ferrari or race car than doing the same repair over and over again
WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT
You're not just joining another bodyshop. You'll have the opportunity to work on rare, high-end and motorsport vehicles and develop your skills on projects where craftsmanship genuinely matters. If you're serious about cars and serious about your bodywork skills, we want to hear from you.
