Description: 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 up to £52,000, a guaranteed overtime option, and additional bonus opportunities. 40 hours per week, core hours 8:30am‑5:00pm, with 1 in 4 Saturdays.

A different kind of RAC role: The SMR division delivers planned, structured repair and servicing directly to members’ homes or workplaces.
No emergency callouts, unpredictable shift patterns or roadside recoveries.
Work through a scheduled list of jobs, with time, tools and support you need for quality work.
- What you’ll do
- Routine servicing
- Diagnostics using advanced mobile equipment
- In‑depth repairs normally done in a workshop
- Member advice and recommendations based on inspection
- Vehicle safety checks aligned to RAC standards
You’ll have a fully equipped van, fuel card, uniform, full tool set and advanced diagnostics.
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
Ideal for techs who want variety and independence without the reactive nature of Patrol.
