A wide range of tasks

Rasmus Molbeck joined Frode Laursen as an apprentice mechanic in 2006. After his training, Rasmus was permanently employed at the workshop in Vitten, and has worked for Frode Laursen ever since.

Rasmus starts his working day at 7:00, when he arrives for work with his colleagues.

– We kick-off the day with a short meeting, where we’re briefed on what needs doing and who’s going to do what, says Rasmus, adding:

– We perform a wide range of tasks. They include standard jobs such as fitting logos, ADR equipment and coffee machines, as well as the more all-round tasks involving repairs to trucks, trailers, tractors and craylers.

 

Possibility of working with many different vehicles

In particular, it’s the all-round tasks that suit Rasmus.

– One of the best things is that it’s possible to work with many different vehicles, and that’s something which I think makes this job interesting. On top of which, it’s a good workplace. People listen to what you have to say, and I have a good working relationship with my colleagues and manager, says Rasmus.

On the question of why one should become a mechanic at Frode Laursen, Rasmus says:

– This is where you want to be if you’re looking for a workplace where there’s freedom with responsibility. It’s a flexible job, and if you give something of yourself, you’ll definitely get something back in return.
