One of Australia’s most successful accident repair companies has launched a recruitment drive in Ireland, as it looks to find top quality bodyshop managers, spray painters and panel beaters who would like to start a new life down under.

Woods Accident Repair Centres is Australia’s largest privately owned repair network, with a chain of 23 bodyshops in the Melbourne area. Established by Lawerence Wood in 1955, Woods is a company that has built its success on a combination of strong customer service and quality workmanship.  

Today, under the guidance of current principals Dennis Smart and Ray Leigh, the company is highly successful and is entering a further growth phase to meet customer demand. Key to this development is the company staff team, which the owners of the business see as its most valuable asset. Every staff member at Woods has an individual development plan that encompasses training and learning designed to maximise skills and ability in their current role, as well as learning new skills to enable them to advance within the organisation. At Woods the emphasis is very much on long-term meaningful careers within the company.

Because of the high standards it sets, Woods only recruits the best people, whom the company feel can uphold its core values. This means that it has some of the best bodyshop managers, spray painters, panel beaters, estimators and administrators in the business.

The Irish accident repair industry has been identified as one where the calibre of staff is excellent and Woods is interested in talking to suitably qualified and experienced bodyshop managers, spray painters and panel beaters who are interested in developing their careers in Australia. Many people from the Irish motor trade have already successfully made the move and are now enjoying life in a beautiful climate around the vibrant city of Melbourne.
