EMPLOYER STATEMENT

Multi-car carriers are flagship vehicles for most Recovery businesses, but for Lantern Recovery, they are at the heart of everything we do - nationwide coverage, 10 cars mounted on a truck the size of Mt. Everest driving up and down the UK's busiest motorways, and best of all? Driving our business forward and representing Lantern Recovery in the best manner possible.

Having been operating for almost 60 years, we are experts in our craft, specialise in breakdown recovery and mechanical engineering, transport both commercial and non-commercial vehicles, conduct roadside repairs, and much more. With our customer base expanding quicker than ever before, we are looking for the right drivers to join our team.

We prioritise the service of our customers and the satisfaction of our employees. We graciously reward our employees via a commission based earning system, the more you work the more you can earn! You will receive a basic salary with bonus entitlement, and have the opportunity to enrol in a highly secure pension scheme. There are opportunities to get involved in industry-nationwide activities such as Trucking Hell or Truck Festivals.

If you have the drive (no pun intended!), commitment, flexibility and ethic, whilst also believing you have what it takes to make a difference at Lantern, we would love to hear from you.

We look forward to reviewing your application.
