• A communicator: You're comfortable sharing your knowledge and information in a way that your customers understand the situation and feel safe that their needs will be taken care of.

• A self-starter: You will be content working independently as well as collaborating as part of a team, driving to different locations in all weathers.
• A fixer/problem solver: You will revel in utilising your technical expertise to solve a variety of issues. Whether fixing the vehicle roadside or recovering it to a garage, you are the solution bringer and enable your customer to get on with their day.

What do I need?

You’ll need:

• NVQ 2 in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair, or equivalent qualifications with appropriate experience.
• It’s essential that you have a full category B driving licence, with 6 points or less. If you don’t also have category BE (towing), we’ll fund it for you.
