Trainee Recovery Driver (Car Licence Holders Welcome) – Build a Career in Vehicle Recovery

Location: Various South Coast Locations
Salary: Starting from £30,925 plus bonuses and career progression opportunities
Full-Time | Permanent

Looking for more than just a driving job?

At Westbourne Motors, we're looking for people with the right attitude, work ethic and customer focus to join our Recovery Driver Training Programme.

If you hold a full UK car driving licence and are looking for a genuine long-term career in the recovery industry, we'd love to hear from you.

This isn't a job where you'll be delivering parcels or transporting freight from depot to depot. Every day is different. You'll be helping motorists when they need assistance most, solving problems, providing reassurance and making a real difference to someone's day.

A Career with Real Progression

Our structured training is designed to help ambitious individuals build a long-term career within the vehicle recovery industry.

Starting with light recovery vehicles and transporters, you'll develop the skills, knowledge and experience needed to progress through the industry. For those who demonstrate commitment, professionalism and a desire to develop, opportunities may exist to progress onto larger recovery vehicles and ultimately HGV and articulated vehicle operations.

We are looking for candidates who aspire to achieve Category C and CE licences as part of their long-term career goals. Whether through company-supported development opportunities or personal investment in their future, a genuine desire to progress is essential.

This role is ideal for someone who sees recovery as a profession rather than simply a driving job.

The Reality of Recovery Work

We believe in being completely honest about the role.

Vehicle recovery is an emergency service industry that operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

This means the job can be physically and mentally demanding. You'll attend customers who may be stressed, upset, frustrated or stranded. You'll work in rain, wind, cold weather and occasionally challenging roadside environments.

You may be helping a family broken down on a motorway in heavy rain, assisting a stranded driver late at night, or recovering vehicles following accidents.

This role is not for the faint-hearted.

Recovery drivers often work when others would rather be at home. It takes resilience, patience, professionalism and a genuine desire to help people.

However, for the right person, it is one of the most rewarding careers in the transport industry. You'll develop specialist skills, enjoy enormous variety in your work and gain the satisfaction of helping people during difficult situations.

What We're Looking For

We're much more interested in attitude than previous recovery experience.

You will:

Hold a full UK car driving licence (held for a minimum of 3 years)
Enjoy helping people and delivering excellent customer service
Remain calm under pressure
Be comfortable working independently
Be willing to work shifts, weekends and varying hours
Have a positive, can-do attitude
Have ambitions to build a career within the recovery industry
Aspire to progress onto larger recovery vehicles and HGV operations in the future
Be resilient and capable of working in all weather conditions

Previous recovery experience is not required as full training will be provided.

What You'll Be Doing

As your training progresses, you'll learn to:

Attend roadside breakdowns and recoveries
Safely load and transport vehicles
Support customers in difficult situations
Operate a range of specialist recovery vehicles
Carry out local and nationwide recoveries
Make informed decisions while working independently
Deliver exceptional customer service at every stage

No two days are ever the same.

SHIFTS:

Four days on two days off, shift rotates to the next start period after every two days off. 07.00 to 18.00 alternating with 14.00 to 01.00

Benefits

Starting salary from £30,925
Performance and attendance bonuses
Customer feedback bonus opportunities
Excellent industry training
Clear career progression opportunities

Join Our Team

If you're looking for a career that offers challenge, variety, responsibility and genuine progression, and you're prepared to work hard to become one of the industry's recovery specialists, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and start your journey into the professional vehicle recovery industry.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Successful candidates must be able to pass an enhanced police vetting check.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: £30,900.00-£34,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Company pension
Store discount

Work Location: Hybrid remote in Burgess Hill (West Sussex)
