Automotive Technician / Mechanic – 4-Day Working Week, 3 Days Off!

Love Working on Cars, But Want More Time to Enjoy Life?

You're a mechanic who takes pride in doing the job properly. You enjoy solving problems, getting stuck into challenging repairs and being part of a team that knows what they're doing.

But you also want a life outside the workshop.

At AutoMech Mechanical & Auto Electrical, we're offering the right technician something worth considering: a 4-day working week with full-time hours.

That's three days off each week, without dropping back to part-time hours.

We're looking for a qualified Automotive Technician to join our team in Warrnambool. We'd also love to hear from a switched-on 3rd or 4th-year apprentice who's ready to take their skills to the next level.

Why You'll Love Working With Us

• 4-day working week: Work your full-time hours across four longer days and enjoy three days off each week.

• Pay that reflects your skills: Salary negotiable based on your experience and capabilities.

• Variety in your work: From routine servicing to challenging diagnostics, major repairs, 4WDs and hybrid vehicles.

• Modern diagnostic equipment: Get access to the tools you need to find faults and do the job properly.

• Ongoing training: Build your diagnostic and technical skills with opportunities to keep learning.

• Mentoring and support: Work alongside people who want to help each other improve.

• Career progression: Develop your skills and grow with a workshop that values people who want to get better.

• An ambitious team: Join people who take pride in their workmanship and want to keep raising the standard.

Who We're Looking For

We're not just looking for someone who can turn a spanner.

We want someone who cares about the quality of their work and brings the right attitude to the workshop every day.

You'll be a great fit if you:

Are a qualified Automotive Technician, or a capable 3rd or 4th-year apprentice with a strong work ethic.

• Take pride in getting repairs right and don't believe in cutting corners.

• Show initiative, think for yourself and enjoy solving problems.

• Work well with others and contribute to a positive team environment.

• Have a genuine interest in diagnostics and developing your technical knowledge.

• Take responsibility for your work and communicate clearly with your teammates.

• Are keen to keep learning and improving.

We value experience, but we also know that attitude, initiative and a willingness to learn count for plenty.

What You'll Be Doing

You’ll enjoy a varied workload that keeps your skills sharp.

Your day-to-day work will include:

• General vehicle servicing, maintenance and mechanical repairs.

• Diagnosing and resolving mechanical and electrical faults.

• Brake, suspension and steering repairs.

• Engine, transmission and major mechanical repairs.

• Working on 4WDs and light commercial vehicles.

• Servicing and repairing hybrid and electric vehicles within your qualifications and training.

• Using modern diagnostic equipment to identify faults accurately.

• Working with the team to deliver quality repairs and keep jobs moving.

• Maintaining high standards of workmanship, safety and workshop organisation.

Ready for a Better Working Week?

If you're proud of your work, enjoy being part of a team that's always improving and like the sound of having three days off each week, we'd like to hear from you.

We're interested in how you think, how you work and what you bring to the team.
