About The Role
Join the RAC as a Mobile Vehicle Technician in our SMR Division – a new era of mobile repair.
- A competitive base salary of £45,378 (inclusive of London Weighting Allowance, if applicable), with on-target earnings of up to £57,000.
- A guaranteed overtime option to increase your base salary, plus additional overtime and bonus opportunities.
- 40 hours per week, with core hours from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm and 1 in 4 Saturdays.
What to Expect
Your day starts with a clear digital schedule. Each job is pre-booked, with the member expecting you. You’ll carry out:
- Routine servicing.
- Diagnostics using advanced mobile equipment.
- In‑depth repairs you’d normally complete in a workshop.
- Member advice and recommendations based on your inspection.
- Vehicle safety checks aligned to RAC standards.
And because SMR is structured, you’re not reacting to breakdowns – you’re delivering planned work that you can prepare for.
From day one, you’ll have everything you need: a fully equipped RAC van, fuelcard, uniform, full tool set and advanced diagnostics. You’ll use your technical skill and problem‑solving ability to get people moving again safely, quickly and confidently.
Who Thrives Here?
You’re more than just great with tools – you’re great with people. Our Mobile Mechanics are the face of the RAC: working on driveways, in car parks, speaking directly with members, and providing reassurance, clarity and high‑quality service.
You enjoy independence, problem solving and real variety – each job is different. From servicing and diagnostics to in‑depth repairs and reporting, you’re hands‑on, adaptable and confident making decisions on the spot.
The Role Is Ideal If You Want
- Independence in a mobile role.
- The stability and support of a trusted national organisation.
- Ongoing development, including future EV and diagnostic skills.
- A role where giving members complete peace of mind is simply part of what you do.
What You’ll Need
- Either: NVQ Level 2 qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance (or equivalent) with 2+ years’ experience.
- Or: 5+ years’ experience as a Vehicle Technician/Mechanic.
- A full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 points.
