- Company life assurance linked to pension.
- Chance to work with one of the UK's largest and leading automotive breakdown/repair businesses.
- 40 hours per week with 8 hours per day. Working hours vary week to week and are discussed upon application; however, you will know your shifts 12 months in advance.
- Shifts between 6:00am-12:00pm.
- You will do a maximum of 1 in 2 weekends; however, if you work a weekend, you will get a day off in the week. Please note that you will likely do a lot less than 1 in 2 weekends.
We are looking to hear from Vehicle Technicians who are experienced in Technical, electrical and diagnostics. Due to the nature of this Roadside Vehicle Technician role, you will see a diverse range of breakdowns and technical issues, so it is essential that you are clued up on these elements.
What is needed:
