Tired of the Melbourne commute? Craving a tree change without losing city conveniences?

Step into leadership at Baker Motors in Albury-Wodonga. We are seeking an experienced Automotive Workshop Supervisor—or an ambitious Senior Technician ready to take that next step into a supervisory role—to help lead our workshop team.

Enjoy the best of both worlds: a vibrant regional hub with fine dining, top schools, the Murray River on your doorstep, and zero gridlock traffic, all just a 3-hour drive from Melbourne.

• Career Growth: Step into a pivotal leadership role with strong backing from management and senior technicians.

• Lifestyle Upgrade: Ditch the 90-minute commute and enjoy affordable living in a thriving regional city.

• Modern Workshop: Work with a collaborative, supportive team in a fully equipped environment.

• Competitive Package: Remuneration reflective of experience.

The Role

As Workshop Supervisor, you will balance floor leadership with technical oversight to keep our team firing on all cylinders:

• Overseeing daily workshop workflow, job allocation, and technician productivity.

• Providing technical guidance and mentoring to technicians and apprentices.

• Collaborating with Service Advisors to ensure accurate repair estimates and timely job completion.

• Ensuring workshop safety, quality control, and compliance standards are strictly met.

• Hands-on diagnostic and repair work when complex jobs require senior expertise.

What We’re Looking For

• Trade Qualified: Cert III in Automotive Light Vehicle Mechanical Technology (or equivalent).

• Leadership Potential: Current supervisor, foreman, or a senior technician with strong communication skills ready to step up.

• Problem Solver: Strong diagnostic capabilities and a sharp eye for quality control.

• Team First Attitude: A mentor who leads by example and keeps workshop morale high.

• Valid Driver’s Licence: Full manual driver’s licence required.
