Mobile Vehicle Technician – Service, Maintenance & Repair Division

Join a leading motoring services organisation and become part of a fast‑growing mobile repair team that brings scheduled servicing and repairs directly to members’ driveways and workplace car parks.

Why this role is different

Unlike traditional roadside rescue, this position works from a pre‑planned digital schedule. There are no emergency call‑outs, no unpredictable shift patterns and no roadside recoveries. You’ll receive the time, tools and support needed to deliver high‑quality work on every appointment.

What you’ll do each day

  • Perform routine servicing and comprehensive diagnostics using advanced mobile equipment.
  • Carry out in‑depth repairs normally completed in a workshop.
  • Provide clear advice and recommendations to members based on your inspections.
  • Conduct vehicle safety checks in line with the organisation’s standards.
  • Use a fully equipped service van, fuel card, uniform, complete tool set and diagnostic kit supplied from day one.

Key Responsibilities

  • Follow a clear, pre‑booked schedule of appointments.
  • Complete each job to the highest technical standard, ensuring member safety and satisfaction.
  • Order parts and manage inventory through the organisation’s mobile platform.
  • Document work performed and communicate any further recommendations to members.

What we’re looking for

  • Level 2 qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance (or equivalent).
  • At least 2 years of experience as a vehicle technician working on light vehicles.
  • Full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 penalty points.

Working conditions

  • Full‑time, 40 hours per week.
  • Core hours: 8:30 am – 5:00 pm, with one Saturday shift every four weeks.
  • Guaranteed overtime option after the first month (optional, £30 per hour).
  • All tools, vehicle, fuel card and uniform provided.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive salary – £40,170 base, with on‑target earnings up to £52,000 through bonuses and premium‑rate overtime.
  • Guaranteed overtime – optional extra days can add £3,000–£5,000 annually.
  • Vehicle scheme – access to a salary‑sacrifice car programme (including electric options) after 12 months.
  • Holiday entitlement – 23 days (rising to 25 with service), plus bank holidays.
  • Pension – up to 6.5 % employer‑matched contributions.
  • Life assurance – cover up to 4 × salary (optional 10 × salary with flex benefits).
  • Wellbeing support – 24/7 confidential helpline for you and household members aged 16+.
  • Discount portal – exclusive savings on retailers, holidays, tools and technology.
  • Employee share scheme – automatic enrolment after probation, giving you a stake in the organisation’s success.

Opportunities for growth

  • Continuous training, including future electric‑vehicle and advanced diagnostic skills.
  • Clear career pathways within a national organisation that values development and recognition.
  • Exposure to a variety of vehicle makes and models, enhancing technical expertise.

Who thrives in this role?

You combine technical excellence with strong people skills. As the face of the organisation, you enjoy independence, problem‑solving and variety – each appointment is different. You take pride in delivering reliable, safe solutions that keep members moving confidently.
