Where you’ll work
You’ll be part of the High Wycombe cluster, covering areas like Slough, Windsor, Maidenhead, Marlow, Beaconsfield, Gerrards Cross.

A Different Kind of RAC Role: Welcome to
SMR
The RAC is known for roadside rescue - but this isn’t that.
What to expect
Your day starts with a clear digital schedule. Each job is pre‑booked, with the
member expecting you. You’ll carry out:
- 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’re delivering planned work that you can prepare for. From day one, you’ll have everything you need: a fully equipped RAC van, fuel card, 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
