A Different Kind of RAC Role: Welcome to
SMR

The 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 of
jobs, 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 the
member 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'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., salary of £40,170, with the opportunity to increase your earnings up to
£52,000 through bonuses and premium-rate overtime. A full-time 40-hour
week, with Monday-Saturday availability (8am-8pm), offers flexibility and
stability

more reward.
