Our services include high-end audio systems, sound deadening, bespoke fabrication, auto electrical work, vehicle security, dash cameras, tracking systems, body styling, PPF, detailing, wrapping, window tinting, commercial vehicle lighting and towbars. Training can be provided across selected services for the right candidate.
The Role
Projects may include complete Porsche sound-system upgrades, Ferrari audio integration, custom BMW boot builds, full vehicle soundproofing, interior rebuilds and complex DSP system installation and tuning.
Your main responsibilities will include:
- Installing audio systems, speakers, amplifiers, subwoofers and vehicle electronics
- Carrying out vehicle strip-downs, sound deadening and careful interior reassembly
- Producing custom panels, amplifier racks, trims and other bespoke fabrication
- Completing OEM integration, electrical diagnostics and fault-finding
- Installing trackers, security systems, dash cameras, lighting and related upgrades
You will also help maintain a clean, organised and professional workshop while consistently delivering work to a high standard and within agreed timescales.

- Proven experience in vehicle customisation, auto electrics or car audio is required
- Strong diagnostic and problem-solving ability
- Excellent attention to detail and pride in workmanship
- Confidence working on premium and high-value vehicles
- A professional, reliable approach and the ability to meet deadlines
- A full UK driving licence and the right to work in the UK
Package and Benefits
The salary is £29,000–£45,000 per year depending on experience and capability, with paid overtime available.
