Mobile Vehicle Technician

You're someone who gets people. This isn't just spanners and engines—our mechanics are out there on driveways, chatting with customers, giving advice, and representing the RAC with pride. You’re not just in the RAC—you are the RAC. Every fix, every chat, every driveway visit shows what we're all about.

You like mixing things up. Every day is a little different—servicing, diagnostics, repairs, and checks. You’ll also manage stock, do reporting, and keep customer conversations flowing.
