Our values are at the heart of everything we do. They represent ambition, and we look for our people to live and breathe them every day:

  • We find solutions.
  • We drive change.
  • We care.

We operate hybrid working across the organisation where we split our time between working on-site at our offices, and at home, remotely within the UK. We believe hybrid working achieves a good work/life balance for our colleagues, allowing us to connect with each other, collaborate on important work, and perform together to deliver for our customers.

  • 28 days annual leave with option to purchase and sell days.
  • Funded Private Medical Insurance cover.
  • Critical illness insurance.
  • Free access to healthcare apps, such as Peppy, Unmind, Aviva Digital GP.
  • Funded health screening for over 50s.

  • Access to our fully accessible company allotment – Where we grow our own produce for local charitable organisations.
  • Access to Prayer room and quiet spaces whilst working in the office.

We also understand that not everyone is the same so offer several voluntary benefits that you can select outside the core package, these include:

  • Dental Insurance.
  • Health and cancer screenings for you and your partner.
  • Discounted gym memberships.
  • Charitable giving.

At Motability Operations, we believe in building a diverse workforce, where our people are empowered to attend work as their true selves, and we encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. We want to sustain a culture that nurtures, where employees are free to flourish and where they’re rewarded equally, regardless of race, nationality or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, age, disability, or gender.

We pride ourselves on being an inclusive employer and as such, all our offices provide first rate disability access. With our hybrid working environment, we do our best to accommodate part-time and flexible working requests where possible, building on our culture of trust, empowerment, and flexibility.

Please note, Motability Operations reserves the right to bring forward the closing date of any of its job vacancies if we receive a suitable number of quality applications from which to make a shortlist. Therefore, we recommend that you apply as soon as possible rather than wait until the published closing date.
