Leicestershire, and the surrounding East Midlands region, is an historical centre for the UK Automotive sector. The landlocked county covers key settlements for Automotive recruitment opportunities, and job vacancies are commonly advertised in areas such as Leicester, Loughborough and Hinckley.

A number of recruitment agencies in Leicestershire will aid local employers in making Automotive hires. Leicester is the county town and the most largely populated settlement in the region. Automotive recruiters can be found in Leicester City Centre, as well as in areas such as Knighton. Loughborough is the second most prominent settlement in Leicestershire and employment firms that fill Automotive jobs are also located here. Other towns where recruitment agencies can be accessed include Coalville, Hinckley and Oakham. 

Local Automotive employment

Motor retailers are some of the most notable employers of staff in Leicestershire, including Sandicliffe and the Sturgess Motor Group. Vacancies are therefore often listed for Parts Advisors, Service Advisors and Repair Technicians. Engineering professionals will also find career prospects within the sector, with recruitment agencies often placing Design Engineers, Quality Engineers and Test Engineers into permanent and temporary Automotive jobs. Automotive research also has a local presence, thanks to the nearby Mira Technology Park.
