  • General tool allowance of £30 per month gross
  • Avail of our referral scheme and earn £1000 when you recommend other mechanics to UPS and they remain with us for six months

What You'll Do

  • Work flexible shift patterns: you must be able to work Monday to Friday either from 6:00am to 2:30pm; or 12:00pm to 8:30pm. The team will provide flexibility.
  • Keep our iconic vehicles on the road by expertly handling a variety of repairs and maintenance on our large fleet
  • Carry out regular maintenance inspections, complete online records and control stock
  • Work with your fellow mechanics to achieve maintenance targets quickly, safely and reliably

Your Skills

  • City & Guilds (of at least lvl 2) or equivalent qualification in vehicle mechanics is mandatory
  • Full UK driving license is mandatory
  • A C1, 7.5-tonne license is mandatory.
