Expedition Mechanic Required

More recently, we have planned and led an extreme driving series for Discovery Channel. ‘Driven to Extremes’ was the most expensive advertiser funded television programme to be produced in the UK to date, which featured Hollywood actors Tom Hardy, Henry Cavill and Adrien Brody tackle the Siberian winter, Taklamakan desert and Malaysian jungle.

We are currently in need of a part-time mechanic to source and prepare expedition vehicles, and then join the team on overland expeditions to extreme locations around the world, including Siberia, Mongolia and Africa. Full article >
