Car Mechanic jobs in United Kingdom

As an RAC Mobile Mechanic in the Service, Maintenance and Repair division, you’ll bring expert vehicle maintenance and diagnostic skills directly to our customers, wherever they are. From driveways to office car parks, you’ll deliver first‑class service without the constraints of a traditional garage.

• You get people. 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.
• Your days vary: servicing, diagnostics, repairs and checks. You’ll also manage stock, handle reporting and keep customer conversations flowing.
• You think on your feet, making the right call for each customer. Different fixes, different faces, new challenges every day.

• At least 3 years of hands‑on experience as a vehicle technician working with a range of light vehicles.
