About the role
We serve an area of approximately 620 square miles. Broadly speaking, our boundaries run from Heathrow in the west to Upminster in the east and from Enfield in the north to Coulsdon in the south. When providing such an essential service to the public and with covering such a large area it is important that our vehicles are maintained to the highest standards.

Our workshop technicians perform a vital and challenging role to support the ambulance fleet. This involves maintaining and repairing specialist vehicles to the highest standards while ensuring maximum levels of availability at all times.
The workshops provide seven-day cover, which in most cases means some early or late starts depending on the location and shift and may be subject to change in the future. The working week will be 37.5 hours by rota, over seven days. Additional payments are applicable to unsocial hours working (shift working) and in line with national terms and conditions. You may also be required to work at different locations to cover shortfalls in staffing from time to time.
