Despite the fact that country is officially facing its worst recession since the 1930s, for one local business the future is looking bright.
Thirsk based mobile bodywork repairer Revive! has recruited a new employee and is adding another van to cope with the demand for its top quality repairs to scuffs and scrapes on vehicle paintwork and alloy wheels.
Psychology graduate Matthew Harland (24) initially joined the company on a temporary basis while he looked for a permanent job – but is enjoying the work so much has decided to make a career out of it.
Since graduating from Lincoln University the Bedale man has been searching for a job that both interested and challenged him, and his role as a Revive! technician does both.
He said: “I have been really surprised by how much enjoy this job. I didn’t realise just how precise and technical it could be. The standards are very high and there’s a lot of processes involved to make sure you get it just right every time.
“I have always liked being around cars and working with people. It is very rewarding to see how pleased customers are with the end result.
“I was impressed with the training I received and I can see there’s a great deal of potential for me here. We’re doing really well and I am looking forward to helping to grow the business.”
Revive! Owner Roger Boothman has been running the company for four years and has seen a steady increase in customers year on year. Commenting on the appointment he said: “I am delighted that a candidate of Matt’s calibre has decided to make a career with Revive! He has a natural aptitude and I am impressed with his work. I have no doubt that he will be a real asset to our business.”
Revive!’s customers include car dealerships, manufacturers and private motorists. Smart (small area repair technique) repair is a quality, cost effective and time-saving alternative to taking the vehicle to a bodyshop for minor paintwork repairs.
