You will need previous experience in the motor trade / automotive industry in aftersales, ideally as an Assistant Service Manager or a Senior Service Advisor wanting to take the next step in their career.
Well, a big benefit of an EOT acquiring a controlling stake in a business is that it protects the business and its employees from the uncertainty associated with a third-party takeover, and risks that come with that..
A fantastic benefit to you as a potential employee is that a company owned by an EOT can also pay annual bonuses of up to £3,600 to its employees free of income tax.
In essence, you can be comforted by more security with the potential of earning additional bonuses up to £3,600 tax free, once employed for 12 months.
