Vehicles are highly complex, and whilst no formal qualifications are required, you must be literate and numerate, with a desire to learn. You must possess a genuine interest in motor vehicle technology and have practical ability to become a first-rate technician. This is a physically demanding role so the candidate will need to be physically able to carry out demands of the role. You will also be active for most of the time.
