  • Work collaboratively as part of a team, while also being confident working independently
  • Follow flexible weekday shift patterns (early and late shifts)

What you’ll need

  • NVQ Level 3, or equivalent qualification in vehicle mechanics
  • Proven experience working with commercial vehicles, including LGVs/HGVs
  • Strong mechanical knowledge (fleet experience highly desirable)
  • Basic computer literacy (for records and systems)
  • Ability to work on your own initiative and manage priorities effectively
  • full UK driving licence (held for at least 2 years)
  • LGV Class 1 licence – advantageous but not essential
  • Air conditioning (Air Tech) certification – desirable (training can be provided)
  • A flexible, friendly, and proactive attitude with strong teamwork skills

What you’ll get

  • £39,000 basic salary + shift premium (£4.61 per hour between 8pm–6am)
  • Overtime opportunities and additional shift allowances
  • Company pension scheme & life assurance
  • Full, industry-leading training, including Electric Vehicle and Air Conditioning (Air Tech) training
  • HGV Licence Upgrade Programme and forklift training opportunities
  • Tool allowance (£30 per month) and full PPE provided
  • Clean, modern working environment
  • Holiday pay
  • Access to discounts at major retailers, cinemas, and attractions
  • Strong internal progression opportunities with a promotion-from-within culture
