Join the RAC as a Mobile Vehicle Technician in our SMR Division - a new era of mobile repair. • A competitive base salary of £45,378 (inclusive of London Weighting Allowance, if applicable), with on-target earnings of up to £57,000, • A guaranteed overtime option to increase your base salary to £44,385, plus additional overtime and bonus opportunities, • 40 hours per week, with core hours from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, and 1 in 4 Saturdays. 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. Where you’ll work You’ll be part of the Chelmsford cluster, covering areas like Chelmsford, Brentwood, Basildon, Southend‑on‑Sea, Grays, Tilbury, Thurrock, Maldon, Braintree, Canvey Island, Rayleigh. You’ll be out on the road in your local area, working through a clearly planned schedule of appointments - no reactive callouts, just organised, pre‑booked work where you can focus on doing the job properly. 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. What you’ll need: • Level 2 qualification in Light Vehicle Maintenance (or equivalent), • Minimum 2 years’ experience as a vehicle technician working on light vehicles, • A full UK driving licence with fewer than 6 points No CV required when you apply and it takes just 5 minutes – it's easier than ever to start your journey with us.

Lead Electrical Design Engineer, Colchester (Essex) I'm recruiting a Lead Electrical Design Engineer for a fast-growing renewable energy company that develops, designs, builds and maintains solar PV and BESS projects for commercial and utility-scale clients across the UK. What makes them stand out is their end-to-end model. Where many firms in this space outsource design, construction, or maintenance, this business keeps the entire lifecycle in-house, from planning and electrical design through to direct construction, drone inspection, and live monitoring. That means the engineering decisions you make here actually get built, and you stay connected to the outcome. They have a 1GW+ track record including high-profile installations for household-name clients, and they're currently in a significant growth phase following a recent merger that's unified their capabilities under one roof. This is a leadership role. You'll own the electrical design function end-to-end, LV, MV and HV systems up to 132kV, SLDs, protection studies, earthing, SCADA, cable sizing and grading, while leading a small internal team and managing external design subcontractors. You'll also be involved in tendering, value engineering, and supporting construction and commissioning teams on the ground. It's a role that sits at the centre of how projects get delivered, not just drawn. If you're a Lead who wants a new challenge, or a Senior looking to step up this might be a great opportunity for you! Key Skills • Strong electrical design capability across solar PV and/or BESS projects, • LV/MV/HV system design including SLDs, protection, earthing and cable calculations, • Familiarity with BS 7671, G99/G100, ENA recommendations and DNO standards, • ICP/DNO coordination experience, • Proficiency in AutoCAD, PVCase, Trimble or similar Necessary Experience • Minimum 5 years in electrical design within renewables or a closely related power sector, • Hands-on site experience alongside design office capability, • Experience leading or mentoring other engineers, formally or informally Office-based in Colchester, Essex. Salary £55,000 — £75,000 depending on experience. Benefits include a 5% employer pension, life insurance at 4x salary, 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, EV salary sacrifice scheme, cycle to work, discretionary bonus, and 2 volunteering days.
