THE ROLE OF A TECHNICAL SPECIALIST:

This role of an automotive OEM, technical specialist is an exciting one! With a role that splits itself down into several distinct areas (both internally and externally), you will be using your extensive technical knowledge in new and exciting ways.

Internally, you will effectively be second line support for any technical enquiries that come into the business.

Alongside this, you will be involved with the parts, hands on, throughout the returns and warranty process, helping to assess them with the view of drawing cases to a close.

With the opportunity to get involved in training, you will also help to develop modules and courses, as well as getting stuck into them yourself – allowing you to pass on your expert knowledge to delegates.

 Across all areas, you will become a technical expert and so your role will vary hugely as a number of departments will rely on your knowledge to support them

The other part of your role is an externally based one, working with the field sales team as they visit various customers or trade shows throughout the year. You will provide the technical backup and expertise to demonstrate the products and answer questions that may arise.

Across the role you will find yourself based out of head office around 70% of the time, with the other 30% taken up by time, spent out in the field. Even though you will be travelling, there will not be that many nights away.
