Roadside Mechanic - Northampton - GBP45,000 OTE, guaranteed minimum GBP28,875 plus GBP600 signing on bonus if you join us before 31st December Are you looking for the opportunity to work at the heart of one of the UK's most trusted breakdown cover providers? Do you have a Level 2 light vehicle maintenance qualification? Do you crave an autonomous role with all the freedom of the road? Do you like variety, dealing with customers and offering them exceptional service? Then read on.

Our unprecedented growth means we now have a fantastic opportunity for skilled, field-based vehicle mechanics to join our Roadside Patrol team. Roadside is at the very heart of our business, as our Patrols deliver an exceptional and much needed service to our members. Unlike working in a garage or dealership, you'll be out and about dealing face-to-face with our customers, handling breakdowns, offering technical support, and delivering the exceptional service that they've come to expect from RAC.

You'll come across a diverse range of breakdowns and technical issues, with the goal of fixing at least 4 out of 5 vehicles at the roadside, so technical expertise and qualifications are a must. A natural people person, you'll get a kick out of offering much needed assistance with a calm and friendly approach, whatever the situation. You'll need a minimum Level 2 light vehicle maintenance qualification and proven, core mechanical and diagnostic skills. And of course, you'll also need a full driving licence!

As a Roadside Patrol, you'll work between the hours of 6.00am and midnight, including weekends and bank holidays. You may also be asked to work alternative shifts at times depending on the circumstances, while there's often an opportunity to work overtime too.

In return for your flexibility, we offer:

  • A highly competitive base salary of GBP28,875pa with the opportunity to earn up to GBP45,000pa plus a GBP600 signing on bonus if you join us before 31st December
  • A fully kitted out RAC Service Patrol van
  • Pension and life cover
  • Generous holiday entitlement
  • Breakdown cover for you and your household
  • Access to our Flexible Benefits Scheme

Not only will you have a comprehensive induction, but you'll also have access to the latest vehicle technology, along with support from technical experts based in our head office. You could also develop your career further within our growing business. So, if you're tired of the same garage environment and you love helping others, it might be time to consider a career as an RAC Service Patrol.
