Dean Lomas joins Schaeffler’s Wrenches & Wisdom campaign

Schaeffler is continuing to grow its Wrenches & Wisdom campaign in 2025 with a visit to the DC Lomas workshop.

Schaeffler’s Wrenches & Wisdom campaign, which puts the spotlight on workshop apprenticeships and career possibilities for students in the aftermarket, has recently completed filming a brand new episode with Dean Lomas.

Since launcing his ‘The Neurodivergent Mechanic’ YouTube channel last year, Dean has become a recognisable face in the industry. He started his automotive career in 1996, winning the National Modern Apprentice of the Year Award in 2001, in 2011 he went mobile, and he finally opened his successful DC Lomas business in 2016. Last year, Dean expanded his Cheshire premises and moved into electric vehicle repairs, so his perspective of the industry is ideal for Wrenches & Wisdom. Dean’s is the career path that many apprentices want to imitate, so sharing his experiences in the latest video will hopefully help many wanting to follow in his footsteps.

In the latest episode, which will go live in early April, Dean explains his journey and how he managed to succeed despite many challenges. He also discusses how the industry can help young people progress their career journey, along with the importance of installing genuine original equipment quality components. The video can be viewed on Schaeffler’s REPXPERT UK social media channels.
