A Different Kind of RAC Role:
Welcome toSMRThe RAC is known for roadside rescue - but this isn’t that.

Our Service, Maintenance & Repair (SMR) division is a newer, fast-growing part of the RAC, built to deliver planned, structured repair and servicing directly to members - from their driveway to their workplace car park.

There are no emergency callouts, no unpredictable shift patterns and no roadside recoveries.

Instead, you’ll work through a scheduled list ofjobs, with the time, tools and support you need to do quality work.

What to expect

Your day starts with a clear digital schedule. Each job is pre‑booked, with themember expecting you.

You’ll carry out:

Routine servicing
Diagnostics using advanced mobile equipment
In‑depth repairs you’d normally complete in a workshop
Member advice and recommendations based on your inspection
Vehicle safety checks aligned to RAC standards

And because SMR is structured, you’re not reacting to breakdowns - you’redelivering planned work that you can prepare for.

From day one, you’ll have everything you need: a fully equipped RAC van, fuelcard, uniform, full tool set and advanced diagnostics. You’ll 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

It’s the ideal role for techs who want variety and independence without the reactive nature of Patrol.

What you’ll need

Either: NVQ Level 2 qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance (or equivalent) with 2+ years’ experience
or 5+ years’ experience as a Vehicle Technician/Mechanic
and A full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 points
