Future Ready: The EV Generation

Electric vehicles are transforming the automotive industry and some Ford & Slater technicians are on the frontline. In this episode, we explore what it really means to be a technician in an EV-first world.

We speak with Henry Farr-James, a Year 2 Apprentice HGV Technician learning the skills of tomorrow, Josh Burton, an HGV Technician already trained and working on EVs, and Josh Spencer, EV and Sustainability Manager. Together, they reveal why electric trucks are reshaping the industry, what the next generation of automotive careers could look like, and what apprentices need to know to thrive in this new era.
