Job description

We're on the hunt for a qualified Light Vehicle Mechanic to join a respected workshop in Torquay. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys variety in their day, thrives in a supportive team environment, and takes pride in delivering quality mechanical work across a broad range of vehicles.

The workshop sees an average of 5-10 vehicles per day, offering steady, diverse work without the chaos. You'll be responsible for all aspects of mechanical repairs - from diagnostics and servicing to suspension, brakes, and engine work. This role is hands-on and broad, making it ideal for someone who doesn't want to be boxed into one specialty.

The position is full-time, working Monday to Friday, with 2 hours of guaranteed overtime per week available.

We're looking for someone who brings not just experience, but also the right mindset.
You'll need:

• A minimum of 2 years post-qualification experience, ideally from an independent or franchise background rather than dealerships
• Solid diagnostic and troubleshooting skills
• Proficiency with scan tools and the confidence to work independently when needed
• A strong attitude, reliability, and a team-oriented work ethic
• Flexibility to work on a wide range of makes and models
• Full Australian working rights

This is a down-to-earth workshop that values good people and solid work. You will be joining a team that offers position stability and a good hourly rate.
