About Avis Short

Avis UK is a subsidiary of Avis Europe plc employing around 700 people across 122 locations in the UK.

In fact, our history in Europe stretches back all the way to 1965. But our story began in 1946, when Warren Avis opened the world's first car rental operation at Detroit Airport in the US. And every day since, we've been proving to our customers that we try harder.

Sunday Times 100 Best Companies

Our people voted us one of the UK's "Best Companies to Work For" in 2005 and 2006. Maybe it's down to the benefits - like generous holidays, pension, staff discounts and our award-winning training programme.

Or as the Sunday Times put it, "Avis Rent A Car preaches an extensive range of family values that would put the Waltons to shame".

Customer Service. We take it personally.

From a friendly "hello", to keeping up the highest standards in everything we do, we go out of our way to treat customers as we'd like to be treated ourselves. "Responsibility" doesn't quite cover it, but our famous customer service rests on a simple belief in taking ownership.

It means understanding that not all our customers want the same thing - so we listen carefully and deliver a truly tailored service. And it means anticipating any potential issues - then working to resolve them quickly and smoothly.

Of course, it takes a special kind of person to deliver this kind of service - day-in, day out. Which is where you come in.
