A Proper MOT Tester Role Without the Pressure or Chaos
If you’re an approved MOT Tester looking for a more structured, stable, and professionally run workshop, this is a strong opportunity in Derby.
You’ll be joining a well-established and highly regarded garage where standards are high, processes are organised, and technicians are trusted to do their job properly — not rushed or overworked.
This is a role where accuracy matters, compliance is taken seriously, and you can focus on delivering high-quality MOT testing in a calm, well-managed environment.
Why This Role Stands Out
- £35,000 – £40,000 salary depending on experience
- Monday to Friday only — no weekend working
- Join a reputable, well-established Derby garage
- Clean, modern MOT facilities and workshop environment
- Structured workflow with proper job planning
- Supportive management that understands workshop demands
- Stable, long-term opportunity with low staff turnover
- Professional environment focused on quality and compliance
- No unnecessary pressure or rushed testing targets
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
