What will I be doing?
As a Mobile Vehicle Technician in Heathrow, London, you'll bring your technical expertise directly to RAC's automotive customers, as you carry out car services, repairs and diagnostics at customers' homes or workplaces.
RAC will provide you with your van, tools and bookings, along with all the training you'll need - from there, you'll work closely with RAC members, sharing your experience and giving them a great customer service experience.
To help you in your day to day role, you'll have the full support of a network of other vehicle mechanics, roadside technicians, in-house experts and RAC professionals.
What do I need to succeed?

- A level 2 light vehicle maintenance qualification (or equivalent)
- Previous work experience as a vehicle technician or mechanic in the motor trade, working with different types of light vehicles
- A full UK driving licence with less than 6 points
You'll love work with customers 1 on 1, helping to solve problems, answer questions and give advice. You're comfortable delivering a wide range of services, including maintenance, diagnostics, repairs, and checks. You're able to think on your feet, and make decisions with the customers' best interests of heart.
