You’re more than a mechanic. You’re a problem solver, a people person, and a proud ambassador for the RAC. Whether you’re on a busy roadside or a quiet cul‑de‑sac, you’re calm under pressure, quick to connect, and confident in your craft.

You embrace flexibility. One moment it’s fault diagnostics, the next it’s a flat tyre or a flat battery – no two jobs are the same. You’ll manage your own kit, keep your van stocked, and handle your reports with precision.

For more than 128 years, we’ve been keeping drivers moving, and today we’re trusted by over 15 million members. We’re also trusted by our people, with a 4.5‑star Glassdoor rating showing that RAC is a place where support, ambition, and opportunity go hand in hand.

We welcome people from every background, value every voice, and back your growth every step of the way. At the RAC, you can bring your full self to work and we’ll be with you every step of the way to help you grow and develop your career.
