Job Description

No matter how exceptional our vehicles are, we always feel we can make them better. Whether it’s through improved craftsmanship or fuel efficiency, increased safety or comfort, we continually strive to outdo ourselves. Many of our most exciting breakthroughs have come from looking at, and learning from, what we’ve done before. And whatever their inspiration, the innovations we make help us drive forward as a leader in the luxury vehicle market.

A specialist within the team, you’ll analyse, and respond to, changes in the ever-evolving legislative requirements of the markets in which we sell. Throughout the design verification process you’ll review product changes, liaise with legislative authorities worldwide and steer our programmes through to successful certification. As our continued growth sees us move into new markets around the world, your role will only ever get more complex - and more fascinating.

Candidate Profile

This means that experience in a component or vehicle legislative function, involving the close analysis of vehicle legislation, is vital. You must have knowledge of certification and type approval systems and procedures, along with the ability to understand test reports and technical certification information. The interpersonal skills needed to present complex information to diverse audiences is important too. And as this is a mobile role, a full UK passport and a driving licence are essential.

Our customers expect the best, and so do we, so you’ll be challenged every day. You’ll hone your skills to the leading edge and you’ll enjoy all the rewards that come from powering the growth of a prestigious luxury brand.

Benefits

Our employees have access to a privilege car purchase scheme, membership of a competitive pension plan, performance related bonus scheme and 26 days holiday entitlement.
