- Being aware and alert to any new business opportunity
- Ensuring all customer and business documents are completed in full
- Be a champion of health and safety, maintaining MEP’s impeccable track record
What We’re Looking For
- Experience of driving a 7.5T vehicle and confidence covering a wide regional area
- You’ll enjoy meeting people, being an advocate for great customer service
- Flexible approach to working location – happy to support different branches as required
- With an interest in machinery, you will have basic knowledge of how equipment works or be keen to learn and widen your own expertise
- Hold Class 1 business use on your personal motor insurance policy
