The Honda Apprenticeship programme is geared toward training the right candidate to become a qualified Parts Advisor. But what does a Parts Advisor do?

Parts Advisors are responsible for ordering, selling, and managing stock control on a wide range of vehicle parts and accessories. Duties may vary from employer to employer but will typically include:

• Advising customers on how to solve a problem with their vehicle.
• Taking orders from customers both face to face and over the phone.
• Maintaining an ordered stock room and finding parts from stock.
• Raising invoices for parts sold.
• Liaising with other members of staff.
• Working alongside on-site Service Technicians to ensure they have the parts needed to complete their daily work.

We are looking for an enthusiastic, hardworking individual to join our team and embark on a long term career, with excellent earning and progression opportunities once you complete your apprenticeship.

Customers may include members of the public, service departments of retailers, and garages.

Please note, the Parts Advisor role varies slightly by employer based upon the specific needs within the location.

Training will be delivered using a combination of virtual classroom remote learning and face-to-face block release weeks at our state-of-the-art training centre.

Successful applicants must be prepared to travel to the Honda Institute, in Bracknell, to complete their apprenticeship training. All training-related costs are fully covered as part of the programme, including travel, accommodation, and meals.

In the workplace, your personal, dedicated mentor will support your continued learning as you apply the skills and knowledge you have gained through the remote sessions and at the Honda Institute.

This is a fully rounded training experience where you will build life skills that last and gain both apprenticeship qualifications and brand certifications.

On successful completion of the apprenticeship programme, you will receive the following qualification (or the equivalent qualification for your devolved nation):

Once your apprenticeship is complete, you will continue your learning journey and you will have the opportunity drive your career forward. Some of our apprentices have gone on to become team leaders and managers within the retail network.
