Who we're looking for

Our preference is for an experienced or qualified Automotive Glass Technician with a sound understanding of modern vehicle glazing systems and, ideally, experience with ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) camera calibration following windscreen replacement.

  • A clean Class 1 drivers licence

For the right person, we'll provide the training

If you're new to automotive glass but have the right mechanical aptitude, work ethic and attitude, our client is prepared to provide comprehensive on-the-job training.

You'll learn the skills required to safely remove and install automotive glass, work with modern vehicle glazing systems, and understand the procedures associated with increasingly sophisticated vehicle safety technology.

What you'll get

  • Full training and ongoing support
  • The opportunity to learn a specialised trade
  • A varied, hands-on role
  • A positive and supportive working environment
  • Long-term career development opportunities
  • The chance to build valuable skills within the automotive industry
