Joe says:"I listen to other people complain about their hum-drum jobs and I feel so lucky that I have found something I really love. Ascott are going to send me to the new Geely manufacturing plant in Coventry once I have completed my level 3 course at College. I will be learning the specialist techniques involved in servicing and maintaining the new generation TX5 electric cabs that will be rolled-out on our streets over the coming years.”

Andy Ascott is one of the Managing Directors at Ascott Cabs. He says:“We have now worked successfully with seven excellent Apprentices provided by London South East Colleges. Apprenticeships work really well for us. It means that we play a massive part in their initial training and provide them with the skills we need as a business as well as those that lead them to a successful career. The College provides them with excellent ‘state-of-the-art’ equipment and facilities, health and safety training and all the necessary theoretical tuition. We are now looking for more Apprentices to join us and our ever-expanding services to London’s black taxi trade.”


If you think you have what it takes to become a professional motor vehicle mechanic or build a successful career in the automotive industries, we’d like to hear from you. We have a great range of courses and apprenticeship opportunities to get you started. Come along to one of our open events.
