Building on Strong Foundations
At the heart of this achievement is Autotech Recruit, the founding brand of Autotech Group, which operates the UK’s largest network of temporary vehicle technicians, MOT testers, and service and parts advisors. Since its inception in 2010, Autotech Recruit has laid the foundation for the company's growth. Its mission to tackle the skills shortage and meet the demands of an evolving automotive industry fuelled the creation of sister brands, Autotech Training, Autotech Academy, and Autotech Connect.
Through these brands, Autotech Group has become synonymous with upskilling the automotive workforce and integrating technology into the sector to bridge skills gaps. Our Autotech Academy initiative has been instrumental in addressing the significant challenges of not enough young talent entering the sector through its unique paid internship solution for newly qualified vehicle technicians, which is providing employers with an expanded and skilled talent pool.
Recognition for Industry Leadership
This win is a testament to Autotech Group’s ability to work as a true partner to the automotive industry, offering innovative and consultative solutions that go beyond traditional recruitment. A spokesperson for the awards highlighted:
“This business has made it its mission to not only understand its specialist sector but to use innovative methods to solve the challenges it faces. It offers a truly consultative and value-added service, as well as extensive candidate training programs, designed to solve the skills gap and retention issues the sector faced."
“We are delighted to have won the Best Small Recruitment Business award at the Global Recruiter Awards,” comments Simon King, CEO of Autotech Group. “This prestigious accolade highlights our ability to adapt, innovate, and collaborate as a trusted partner to the automotive aftermarket, and reaffirms our unwavering commitment to enhancing the industry’s reputation and ensuring it thrives in an era of change.
This award is also a testament to the passion, innovation, and diligence of our entire team. We remain committed to developing solutions that drive progress within the automotive aftermarket, helping bridge the skills gap and empowering businesses in this fast-evolving industry.”
Another Milestone for Autotech Group
The recognition is yet another milestone for Autotech Group. After scooping the Best Specialist Recruitment Business at the 2017 Global Recruiter Awards, last year the company won in the ‘Recruitment Agency of the Year’ category at the UK Recruiter Awards and, earlier this year, its Autotech Training brand also received the top accolade in the partnership category at the Motor Industry Awards, further solidifying its reputation as a leader in the sector.
