It's your choice - more flexibility, more reward.\n, • Tools to Drive Your Future - get started with a free RAC Ultimate Complete Breakdown Service from day one, plus access to a car salary sacrifice scheme (including electric vehicle options) after 12 months, delivering serious tax savings.\n, • Time Off That Matters - enjoy 23 days of holiday (rising to 25 with service), plus bank holidays.

Put simply: you’ll be trusted to do the job properly — without cutting corners. 🧰 What are we looking for? We’re not expecting Superman (although a decent PPE-changing speed would be appreciated). We’re looking for someone who is: Qualified in P402, P403 and/or P404, RSPH equivalent, or holds a relevant Certificate of Competence. Comfortable working to HSG248 and HSG264.
