Using the latest diagnostics equipment to solve problems
Develop and maintain good working relationships with employees and other departments to establish a positive workplace culture
Working closely with a team that backs each other
Perform routine and repair work on vehicles in a way that ensures prompt and accurate diagnoses of vehicle problems and service requirements
To identify faults & test-drive company and customer vehicles safely
Work with Service and Parts Advisors to ensure a smooth repair and service of all vehicles, while delivering the highest level of customer satisfaction in order to drive business for the service department and the company overall
Upskilling themselves to keep up to date with the latest in procedures, repairs and product knowledge
Maintaining a full understanding of servicing schedules and the requirements
Completing all formal company and manufacturing required technical training
What we’re looking for:
Relevant NZQF Level 4 Motor trade qualification (or international equivalent) OR at least 3 years’ experience as an Automotive technician
Confidence working across a range of makes and models
Sound fault-finding and diagnostic experience
Proficient computer skills with good written and verbal communication
Quality attention to detail in recording vehicle information, concentrating on getting it right the first time
Someone who’s just as comfortable with a scan tool as a spanner
A team player with a reliable, can-do attitude – your word counts here
Full NZ driver’s licence
What’s in it for you?
* Full-time, permanent work offering 40 hours per week in a genuinely busy and respected workshop
Up-to-date tools, tech, and a modern workspace
Career growth pathways – whether it’s team leadership or master tech level
Regular brand training and development support
Strong team culture where your experience is recognised – and rewarded
Competitive hourly rate of $37 - $42 per hour + overtime options
Optional overtime available if you're keen to boost your earnings
This is the kind of role where Monday mornings don’t feel like a drag – because you’re part of a team that’s got your back, and leadership that knows good technicians don’t grow on trees.
