Job Description
Vehicle Assembly Technician – Specialist Electric Vehicles
The Opportunity
We are recruiting experienced Vehicle Assembly Technician to join an innovative British automotive manufacturer producing beautifully engineered, scaled-down electric versions of iconic classic cars.
This is not a typical high-volume production-line role. You will work in a specialist, low-volume environment where craftsmanship, precision and build quality are genuinely important.
The position would particularly suit someone from specialist automotive, low-volume vehicle manufacturing, motorsport, classic cars or performance vehicle assembly.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Building vehicles from chassis through to final assembly
* Installing mechanical, electrical, powertrain, body and safety components
* Working across production, prototype and demonstration vehicles
* Reading and interpreting technical drawings and build instructions
* Diagnosing and resolving mechanical and assembly issues
* Inspecting completed work and maintaining high quality standards
* Supporting continuous improvement of vehicle build and assembly processes
* Working closely with production and engineering colleagues
What We’re Looking For
Essential:
* Minimum 2 years’ hands-on vehicle assembly experience
* Good mechanical assembly skills
* Experience using hand and power tools
* Ability to work accurately to technical instructions and drawings
* Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality
* Full UK working rights
Experience from low-volume automotive, motorsport or specialist vehicle manufacturing would be particularly attractive.
Highly Desirable Experience
Any of the following would be advantageous:
Vehicle electrical systems and wiring
EV or electric powertrain systems
Mechanical and powertrain assembly
Fabrication
MIG/TIG welding
Composite materials
Body and trim assembly
Prototype vehicle builds
Motorsport
Classic or specialist vehicles
Quality inspection and vehicle rectification
Package
£34,000–£40,000 per year, depending on experience, plus:
Private healthcare, dental and optical cover
25 days' holiday + bank holidays
Bonus scheme
Share options after qualifying service
Company pension
Career progression opportunities
Life insurance
Health and wellbeing programme
Subsidised café and employee benefits
Regular company events
Cycle-to-work scheme
Free on-site parking
Who Should Apply?
We would particularly like to hear from:
Vehicle Assembly Technicians | Vehicle Technicians | Automotive Assembly Technicians | Motorsport Technicians | Prototype Technicians | Mechanical Assembly Technicians | Vehicle Build Technicians | Automotive Manufacturing Technicians | EV Technicians
If you enjoy building unusual, high-quality vehicles rather than simply working on another mass-production line, this could be an excellent opportunity.
Location: Bicester, Oxfordshire (OX26)
Salary: £34,000–£40,000 DOE
Employment: Permanent, Full-time
UK working rights required
