Mobile Vehicle Technician

Job Description:

Mobile Vehicle Technician – Leicester
Hourly Rate: £18.58 (£38,652 per year)
Overtime: £27.87 per hour after 40 hours
Example Earnings: Work 45 hours per week and earn £45,800+

A Role with Freedom, Stability & Real Earning Potential
We’re recruiting Mobile Vehicle Technicians across Leicester and the surrounding areas for one of the UK’s most trusted breakdown organisations. This is a role where you’re valued for your expertise, supported from day one, and given the autonomy to do what you do best.
You’ll start and finish your day from home, receive industry‑leading training, and join a business that invests heavily in your long‑term development.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Start and finish on your driveway — no unpaid travel time
• 31 days’ annual leave, rising to 33 with service
• Training from day one with continuous development opportunities
• Fully equipped, state‑of‑the‑art company van (tools, uniform, diagnostics)
• Free breakdown cover for you and your household
• Clear progression plan to increase your base salary
• Life assurance linked to pension
• Flexible benefits platform supporting health, wellbeing, and lifestyle

This is a company that recognises skill, rewards effort, and supports ambition.

What You’ll Be Doing
As a Mobile Vehicle Technician / Roadside Technician, you’ll be the expert customers rely on when things go wrong. Your role will include:

• Diagnosing faults and explaining findings clearly and confidently
• Carrying out servicing, maintenance, electrical work, and diagnostics
• Repairing vehicles at the roadside wherever possible
• Delivering outstanding customer service — you’re the face of the business

Every day brings new challenges, and you’ll have the independence to manage your own workload while making a real difference on the road.

What We’re Looking For

• Minimum Level 2 Vehicle Maintenance & Repair qualification (proof required)
• Atleast 3 years workshop experience 
• Full UK driving licence
• Strong technical background across mechanical, electrical, and diagnostic work

If you enjoy problem‑solving, working independently, and helping customers when they need it most, this is the ideal next step in your career.
