- Read and follow job cards, repair instructions and technical drawings
- Safely use workshop equipment, moulding tools, spray equipment and cutting tools
- Maintain a clean, organised and safe workspace
- Work with the team to meet repair deadlines and daily production targets
- Follow workshop procedures and safety requirements
