Salary: £48,720 basic salary, OTE up to £55,000 with overtime and bonuses.

You're more than just a mechanic — you're a problem solver. Whether it's a busy roadside or a quiet residential street, you stay calm under pressure and confident in your ability to find the right solution. Every call‑out is different, and that's exactly how you like it.
