• Your own fully equipped RAC van and fuel card
• Full uniform and PPE
• All the essential tools and diagnostic equipment you need

You’ll have the freedom and variety of working on the move, meeting different people, solving problems, and making a real difference every day – all while keeping a healthy work‑life balance in a 40‑hour week.

No CV required when you apply – it's easier than ever to start your journey with us.

• Overtime to suit you – Just two extra days a month could add £5,760 a year to your base pay. Plus, end‑of‑shift overtime opportunities could be worth up to an extra £3,000 a year.
• Rewarding incentives – Earn up to a further £6,000 a year in bonus payments.
• Share in our success – All our employees are awarded shares, at no cost, so their share in the success of our growing business.
• Free RAC Ultimate breakdown cover – From your very first day.
• Car salary sacrifice scheme – Includes electric vehicle options (after 12 months) to help you save on tax.
• Generous holidays – 23 days plus bank holidays (rising to 25 with service).
• Pension & life cover – Up to 6.5% matched pension contributions and life cover up to 4× your salary (10× with flex benefits).
• Wellbeing support – 24/7 confidential support helpline for you and your family.

What We’re Looking For

• Level 2 Light Vehicle Maintenance qualification (or equivalent)
• At least 3 years’ hands‑on experience as a vehicle technician on light vehicles
• A full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 points

This role is perfect for you if you’re great with customers as well as cars. You’ll enjoy variety—diagnostics, repairs, servicing, and checks—and be confident making decisions on the spot. You’ll take pride in doing a quality job every time, delivering the complete peace of mind that comes from the RAC.
