Ford recruitment

A RANGE of Ford Dealerships from across Ireland is looking to recruit up to 50 new apprentice technicians and fully qualified technicians for a rewarding career in the motor industry.

In addition to taking on new unqualified apprentices, a selection of Ford Dealers nationwide are also hoping to recruit trained technicians with cutting-edge software, electronic and electrical skills to reflect the rapid evolution of Ford’s product range.

David Pimlott, Director of Customer Service at Ford Ireland, said: ‘This is a fantastic opportunity to join Ireland’s biggest network of car dealerships. Ford’s product range is growing almost as fast as its technology, and although we value traditional technical skills, we’re looking for ambitious and flexible technicians who can join us on our journey to hybrids, battery electric vehicles, autonomous technology – and beyond.

‘Believe it or not, any one of our recent Ford passenger models has as much technology on it as the first Apollo rocket that took man to the moon, and our cars are becoming more technologically advanced with each new model. Keeping those models in tip top form requires the best trained technicians in the market. The Ford Technical Training Academy in Naas, Co. Kildare delivers that world-class training for all of our technicians. A career as a Ford technician is very rewarding in terms of job satisfaction, pay and benefits.’
