Job titles that can add hundreds onto your car insurance - and their cheaper alternatives

Ten job titles have been found to potentially add £100s onto your car insurance - with mechanic taking the top spot, following by an engineer and an administrator. New data by van and leasing company, Vanarama, has revealed that the average cost of insuring a car has increased by £94.61 in the past two years.

And given that a person’s profession can help hike up the prices of insuring a car, Vanarama has uncovered the 10 job titles which will see the biggest price hikes in car insurance costs in 2023, before sharing a cheaper job title to mention when renewing.

To find out which occupations will come with the highest insurance premiums in 2023, Vanarama analysed the UK’s 100 most common job titles and submitted them for an insurance quote whilst using the average UK driver profile and a VW Golf 2020 (the UK’s bestselling car) each time, so the prices were consistent.
