For easier compatibility format your USB key as FAT32

Thanks John, this is a really elegant solution.
Plugging in a USB stick however, CLI reports:

*FAT: Unrecognised mount option "relatime" or missing value*

I checked the link you included but there's nothing obvious that would give this error.
(My stick is formatted NTFS)

Thanks Henry

    In short; create this file
    (*/etc/udev/rules.d/11-backup-auto-mount.rules ) *by copying and
    pasting the text between the start and end tags:

     --- start ---
    **
    KERNEL!="sd[a-z][0-9]", GOTO="backup_auto_mount_end"

    # Import FS infos
    IMPORT{program}="/sbin/blkid -o udev -p %N"

    # Global mount options
    ACTION=="add", ENV{mount_options}="relatime"
    # Filesystem-specific mount options
    ACTION=="add", ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="vfat|ntfs",
    ENV{mount_options}="$env{mount_options},utf8,gid=100,umask=002"

    # Mount the device
    ACTION=="add", RUN+="/bin/mount -o $env{mount_options} /dev/%k
    /var/lib/asterisk/backups"

    # Clean up after removal
    ACTION=="remove", ENV{dir_name}!="", RUN+="/bin/umount -l
    /var/lib/asterisk/backups"

    # Exit
    LABEL="backup_auto_mount_end"

     --- end ---

    You can then insert and remove your key without touching the
    system. (I'm making a lot of assumptions about FreePBX that should
    be correct, for example that it uses udev).

    Lots more suggestions on udev rules here:

        Thanks for all the suggestions. So far I think that Doug'
        solution looks the most promising, however
        it needs automating so that inserting the USB stick will
        automatically "mount" the stick and disconnection will
        "umount" the stick.
        (A sort of plug and play if you will) Restore might work also
        based on this principle.

        So I'm gonna pick your Linux brains (again) and ask if this
        can be done?
