Logistics done differently.
We at XPO are a driving force behind many industries in the UK. You have probably seen our trucks on the road networks, and some you may not have even realised were ours. But to keep our business ahead, we need an amazing team of Vehicle Maintenance Technicians to service and maintain our growing and diverse fleet.
We’re looking for the next wave of technicians and have the exciting opportunity for an apprentice to join us at our site in Wetherby. You’ll work 37.4 hours per week, Monday to Friday (no weekends ??), and play a vital part in learning how to keep our fleet maintained, serviced, and safe.

This programme will offer a large amount of diversity when it comes to vehicle maintenance, learning from experienced technicians, exposure to the latest technology including alternative fuel like HVO or electric vehicles, to name a few.
We’ll be able to show you the latest vehicle technology and you’ll get to see what our customers are investing in.
Pay, benefits and more.
We’re looking to offer a competitive salary of up to £26,000, with the possibility that during the time you’re on programme, your salary will rise incrementally.
You’ll also receive holiday pay, access to a variety of high street discounts, a cycle to work scheme, a workplace pension, and many other perks including ongoing learning through the XPO University.
