Oliver Wilson

I am a practical, hard-working and enthusiastic trainee mechanic with two years' experience in a privately owned garage and Level 2 automotive qualifications from Sheffield College. I have hands-on experience assisting with vehicle diagnosis, repair and maintenance, and I am confident communicating with customers about repair requirements. I am now looking to join a larger main dealer apprenticeship programme where I can continue developing my technical skills, work to manufacturer standards, and build a long-term career in the automotive industry.
