Job description

Vehicle Technician (Defence)

Coventry

Contract

(Outside IR35) – £25ph

Immediate start. Ongoing contract with strong chance of extension.

We're looking for a hands-on Vehicle Technician to join a specialist defence vehicle programme in Coventry. This isn't standard automotive assembly, you'll be building and fitting mechanical and electrical systems on low-volume, high-spec military vehicles where the work actually matters.

What you'll be doing:

• Assembling and fitting sub-systems to tight tolerances, working from technical drawings and work instructions
• Using specialist tools and equipment, checking your own work for accuracy
• Working alongside Production, Engineering and R&D, not in a silo

What you'll need:

• City & Guilds Level 3 (or equivalent) in Automotive, Mechanical or Vehicle Systems
• Solid experience in mechanical fitting or low-volume vehicle assembly
• Confident reading engineering drawings and schematics
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, quality-driven environment

Bonus points for:

• Military, HGV or off-highway vehicle experience
• Electrical integration or sub-system installation

Hours: 08:00-16:35 Mon-Thu, 08:00-15:10 Fri.

£25ph, outside IR35. If you don't tick every box but have strong mechanical fitting experience, get in touch anyway.
