A competitive base salary of £40,170, with on-target earnings of up to £52,000 A guaranteed overtime option to increase your base salary to £44,385, 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. A Different Kind of RAC Role: Welcome to SMR The RAC is known for roadside rescue - but this isn't that. Our Service, Maintenance & Repair (SMR) division is a newer, fast-growing part of the RAC, built to deliver planned, structured repair and servicing directly to members - from their driveway to their workplace car park. There are no emergency callouts, no unpredictable shift patterns and no roadside recoveries. Instead, you'll work through a scheduled list of jobs, with the time, tools and support you need to do quality work. 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, fuel card, 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. Why SMR is different (and why techs love it) - Planned appointments instead of emergency responses - Consistent workflow instead of unpredictable demands - In depth repairs, not roadside temporary fixes - Time to do the job properly, with support and parts ordering built in - Clear schedules using RAC's mobile service platform It's the ideal role for techs who want variety and independence without the reactive nature of Patrol. What you'll need: - Level 2 qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance (or equivalent) - Minimum 2 years' experience as a vehicle technician working on light vehicles - A full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 points No CV required when you apply and it takes just 5 minutes - it's easier than ever to start your journey with us. As a Mobile Mechanic at the RAC, you'll get benefits that go the extra mile: Earnings That Motivate - enjoy a market-competitive base salary of £40,170, with the opportunity to increase your earnings up to £52,000 through bonuses and premium-rate overtime. A full-time 40-hour week, with Monday-Saturday availability (8am-8pm), offers flexibility and stability Opt-in Guaranteed Overtime - after your first month, you can choose to work extra rest days at £30 per hour. Just one extra day a month could earn you £3,000 more per year on top of your base salary. Two extra days could give you an extra £5,000. It's your choice - more flexibility, more reward. Tools to Drive Your Future - get started with a free RAC Ultimate Complete Breakdown Service from day one, plus access to a car salary sacrifice scheme (including electric vehicle options) after 12 months, delivering serious tax savings. Time Off That Matters - enjoy 23 days of holiday (rising to 25 with service), plus bank holidays. We also support work-life balance with paid family leave, flexible schedules, and practical resources to help navigate personal commitments. Financial Security & Perks - pension scheme with up to 6.5% matched contributions alongside life assurance cover up to 4x salary (10x optional with flex benefits), designed to support you long-term.

Join the RAC as a Mobile Vehicle Technician in our SMR Division - a new era of mobile repair. A competitive base salary of £40,170, with on-target earnings of up to £52,000 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. A Different Kind of RAC Role: Welcome to SMR The RAC is known for roadside rescue - but this isn't that. Our Service, Maintenance & Repair (SMR) division is a newer, fast-growing part of the RAC, built to deliver planned, structured repair and servicing directly to members - from their driveway to their workplace car park. There are no emergency callouts, no unpredictable shift patterns and no roadside recoveries. Instead, you'll work through a scheduled list of jobs, with the time, tools and support you need to do quality work. 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, fuel card, 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. Why SMR is different (and why techs love it) - Planned appointments instead of emergency responses - Consistent workflow instead of unpredictable demands - In depth repairs, not roadside temporary fixes - Time to do the job properly, with support and parts ordering built in - Clear schedules using RAC's mobile service platform It's the ideal role for techs who want variety and independence without the reactive nature of Patrol. What you'll need: - Level 2 qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance (or equivalent) - Minimum 2 years' experience as a vehicle technician working on light vehicles - A full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 points No CV required when you apply and it takes just 5 minutes - it's easier than ever to start your journey with us. As a Mobile Mechanic at the RAC, you'll get benefits that go the extra mile: Earnings That Motivate - enjoy a market-competitive base salary of £40,170, with the opportunity to increase your earnings up to £52,000 through bonuses and premium-rate overtime. A full-time 40-hour week, with Monday-Saturday availability (8am-8pm), offers flexibility and stability Opt-in Guaranteed Overtime - after your first month, you can choose to work extra rest days at £30 per hour. Just one extra day a month could earn you £3,000 more per year on top of your base salary. Two extra days could give you an extra £5,000. It's your choice - more flexibility, more reward. Tools to Drive Your Future - get started with a free RAC Ultimate Complete Breakdown Service from day one, plus access to a car salary sacrifice scheme (including electric vehicle options) after 12 months, delivering serious tax savings. Time Off That Matters - enjoy 23 days of holiday (rising to 25 with service), plus bank holidays. We also support work-life balance with paid family leave, flexible schedules, and practical resources to help navigate personal commitments. Financial Security & Perks - pension scheme with up to 6.5% matched contributions alongside life assurance cover up to 4x salary (10x optional with flex benefits), designed to support you long-term.
