If you're after a Monday to Friday role with a great team, modern equipment and real room to grow - this is it.

 

The Opportunity

We have fixed-term contract positions available at our Napier store, initially for three months with the possibility of extension dependent on business needs.

  • Conducting inspections and ensuring all work meets rigorous safety and compliance standards
  • Communicating repair work and recommendations to customers in a clear, professional manner

 

What We're Looking For

You'll bring solid hands-on experience, a sharp eye for detail, and a customer-first attitude. To be considered, you'll need:

  • A Level 4 Certificate in Light Automotive (or equivalent), or a minimum of 3 years' relevant experience within the NZ market
  • A full New Zealand Driver's Licence
  • A current WOF Inspector's Certificate, or the willingness and eligibility to obtain one
  • Strong communication skills and a genuine commitment to customer service
