About the Role
As our Roadside Rescue Mechanic, you’ll be the friendly face of the UK’s largest motoring organisation. Whether it’s minutes or months in the wilds of the Trans-Siberian Highway, you’re the AA’s superhero. Ready for anything, you’ll be there for members anytime, anywhere, ensuring they get back on the road safely.
We’re not just fixing cars—we’re returning confidence to drivers for today and tomorrow.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Tend to your engine—or divan—from the driveway. You earn as soon as you start the van and return home.
- Work independently across varied locations and conditions while staying connected to a supportive team.
- Apply technical expertise and clear communication to create positive customer experiences.
- Adapt to new tools with confidence—your curiosity gets the gear, we’ll provide the tools.
- Solve live problems with a blend of technical skills and a calm, crisis-taming approach, handling anything from roadside issues to midnight pothole repairs.
