"I started as an apprentice HGV Technician at RH Commercial Vehicles in 2019, learning how to service vehicles, replace truck parts such as the engine, brakes and diagnostics. I'm now a Supervisor! The support and training I have received has been brilliant. Every day, there is always something new to learn - especially as more and more electric trucks come to the depot. There's so many different parts of a truck and jobs to do - it never gets boring."Harry Squires
