PDI Technician

JOB TITLE PDI Technician

LOCATION Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent

SALARY £14.50 – £16.25 per hour

JOB TYPE Temporary – Perm

HOURS Full-time | Monday – Friday | No weekends

JOB DESCRIPTION

£14.50 – £16.25 per hour. Stoke-on-Trent based. Stoa Recruitment are looking for a Level 2 qualified PDI Technician for a fleet prep centre — a temp-to-perm opportunity for a technician who takes quality seriously and wants a role with a genuine future attached to it.

The Role

You'll be working within a busy fleet preparation centre, processing vehicles through structured PDI checklists before they reach the end customer. Fleet prep is high-volume, process-driven work — the standard is consistent, the expectation is consistent, and the right person thrives in that environment. This isn't a role that suits someone who cuts corners. Every vehicle that leaves the centre carries a standard, and you'll be the one signing it off. Perform well, and a permanent contract follows. Monday to Friday throughout — no weekends, no bank holidays.

What You'll Be Doing

• Carrying out full pre-delivery inspections on fleet vehicles in line with manufacturer and client checklists
• Identifying, recording, and escalating mechanical, electrical, and cosmetic faults accurately and without shortcuts
• Completing minor repairs and adjustments within your qualification scope ahead of vehicle release
• Fitting accessories and completing vehicle preparation to the required handover standard
• Maintaining accurate job cards, inspection records, and compliance documentation on every vehicle processed
• Keeping your bay clean, organised, and compliant with workshop health and safety requirements throughout the shift

What We're Looking For

• NVQ Level 2 in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair — essential
• Previous PDI, prep, or fleet technician experience preferred
• Process-driven and methodical — in a fleet environment, consistency matters as much as ability
• Able to work independently, manage your own throughput, and maintain quality under volume
• Full UK Category B driving licence — essential
• Own tools preferred

What's In It For You

Stoa Recruitment don't place technicians in roles and forget about them. This is a temp-to-perm position — you'll start on a temporary contract with a clear pathway to permanent employment based on performance, not politics.

• £14.50 – £16.25 per hour, dependent on experience
• Monday to Friday — no weekends, no bank holidays
• Consistent weekly hours and weekly pay from day one
• Temp-to-perm structure — a permanent offer for the right person
