• Opt-in Guaranteed Overtime: After your first month, you can choose to work extra rest days at GBP30 per hour. One extra day a month could earn you GBP3,000 more per year; two days could add GBP5,000.
• Tools to Drive Your Future: Receive 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 tax savings.
