Join the RAC as a Mobile Vehicle Technician in our SMR Division - A New Era of Mobile Repair!
Are you ready to take your career to the next level? Join the RAC, where we’re redefining mobile repair with our Service, Maintenance & Repair (SMR) division. Here, you’ll enjoy a fulfilling role that combines technical expertise with the satisfaction of helping our members directly from their driveways to their workplace car parks.

A Different Kind of RAC Role: Welcome to SMR
The RAC is renowned for roadside rescue, but our SMR division is all about structured, planned repairs. Say goodbye to emergency callouts and unpredictable shifts! Here’s what you can expect:
* Start your day with a clear digital schedule of pre-booked jobs.
* Perform routine servicing, diagnostics, and in-depth repairs.

With everything you need at your fingertips—a fully equipped RAC van, fuel card, uniform, and advanced diagnostics—you’ll be empowered to deliver quality work efficiently.
Why SMR is Different (and Why Techs Love It)
* Enjoy planned appointments instead of emergency responses.
* Experience a consistent workflow without unpredictable demands.
* Focus on in-depth repairs rather than temporary fixes.

This role is perfect for technicians seeking variety and independence without the reactive nature of traditional patrol work.
What You’ll Need:
* Level 2 qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance (or equivalent).
* A minimum of 2 years’ experience as a vehicle technician working on light vehicles.
* A full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 points.
