Our Mobile Tyre Technicians use their expertise to deliver a fantastic customer experience in the field. Receiving bookings through an electronic device you’ll order and collect stock from your base location, load the van and plan your route. Driving to customers’ homes or workplaces you’ll carry out booked jobs, working to the highest technical and safety standards.

You’ll need to be prepared to use your own vehicle for travel to the base location of the Mobile van you are to cover and potentially stay away from home for up to 4 nights a week as the location you are covering may be a long commute from your home. You will not be expected to stay away every week, but extensive stays may be required.
