Please note we will be looking to place you in an entry level role so this programme is not aimed at existing Business Analysts. \n In addition to a new career, you gain a minimum of 4 new internationally recognised qualifications while being fully supported by a team of tutors, mentors, and your own recruitment consultant. The team works with you until you are qualified and placed. \n Below are salaries in this sector starting at lower-level positions: \n\n • Administrator/Support: £26,000\n, • Junior Business Analyst: £30,000\n, • Change Analyst: £35,000\n, • Systems Analyst: £40,000\n, • Business Analyst: £50,000\n, • Senior Business Analyst: £60,000\n\n Using our experience in providing UK and internationally accredited Business Analysis training online and through our expert recruitment consultants, we provide a seamless journey and often fast-tracked route into a new career in the BA sector. \n How do we do this? \n 1. Firstly, we place you on a training program which contains the most relevant industry recognised certification courses needed in the industry like the BCS Business Analysis Foundation Course. You can also opt to study the BCS International Diploma in Business Analysis to take your studies a step further. \n 1. Once you have passed the 4 required exams you will be handed over to our recruitment team who will provide you with a professional CV and LinkedIn review, interview support, career advice and tailored support like mock interviews. \n 1. Our consultants work with you to identify the best opportunities available suited to you. Their tailored support helps you to prepare for interviews and perform at your best. Typically, you will start in a junior business analyst, junior analyst or a support/admin role in this sector. \n Business Analysts work closely with Project Managers and Change Managers and opportunities in these areas also exist which broadens the net in these sister sectors. \n To accommodate candidates, the training element of this package is available on finance terms to easily spread the cost of investing in your career. This enables you to get qualified without having to fund all the training costs upfront. In addition, we are so confident in our success with placing qualified candidates that we will refund the cost of the courses to anyone we are unable to place within 12 months of passing their required exams subject to our terms. \n To get your journey started, enquire now and one of our experienced Course and Career Consultants will contact you within 4 working hours to answer any questions that you may have and to assist you in taking the first step toward your new career aspirations. \n We understand this is an important and life changing decision and will provide you with all the information to make an informed decision. \n Our team looks forward to your enquiry and helping you start a new and financially rewarding career.

Join the RAC as a Mobile Vehicle Technician in our SMR Division - a new era of mobile repair. • A competitive base salary of £40,178, with on-target earnings of up to £52,000, • 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 Coventry cluster, covering areas like Coventry, Nuneaton, Bedworth, Rugby, Kenilworth, Leamington Spa. 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... 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 No CV required when you apply and it takes just 5 minutes – it's easier than ever to start your journey with us. As a Mobile Mechanic at the RAC, you’ll get benefits that go the extra mile: • Earnings That Motivate - enjoy a market-competitive base 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, • Opt-in Guaranteed Overtime - after your first month, you can choose to work extra rest days at £30 per hour. Just one extra day a month could earn you £3,000 more per year on top of your base salary. Two extra days could give you an extra £5,000. It's your choice - more flexibility, more reward., • Tools to Drive Your Future - get started with a free RAC Ultimate Complete Breakdown Service from day one, plus access to a car salary sacrifice scheme (including electric vehicle options) after 12 months, delivering serious tax savings., • Time Off That Matters - enjoy 23 days of holiday (rising to 25 with service), plus bank holidays. We also support work-life balance with paid family leave, flexible schedules, and practical resources to help navigate personal commitments., • Financial Security & Perks - pension scheme with up to 6.5% matched contributions alongside life assurance cover up to 4x salary (10x optional with flex benefits), designed to support you long-term., • Wellbeing That Works for You - our 24/7 confidential support service is available to you and household members aged 16+, offering reassurance whenever you need it., • Extras That Make a Difference - access Orange Savings, our exclusive discount portal with deals across top retailers, holidays, tools, tech and more. After passing probation, you’ll automatically join our Colleague Share Scheme, giving you a stake in our collective success. Who thrives here? You’re more than just great with tools - you’re great with people. Our Mobile Mechanics are the face of the RAC: working on driveways, in car parks, speaking directly with members, and providing reassurance, clarity and high-quality service. You enjoy independence, problem solving and real variety - each job is different. From servicing and diagnostics to in depth repairs and reporting, you’re hands-on, adaptable and confident making decisions on the spot. You take pride in using your technical ability to genuinely help people and keep them moving. The role is ideal if you want: ✔ Independence in a mobile role ✔ The stability and support of a trusted national organisation ✔ Ongoing development, including future EV and diagnostic skills ✔ A role where giving members complete peace of mind is simply part of what you do We’re the RAC At the RAC, we don’t stand still.
