WoF, CoF or both - if you know your way around light or heavy vehicles, VINZ wants to hear from you.

You've spent years working on vehicles. Now you could use that experience to help determine whether they're safe and compliant for New Zealand roads.

At VINZ, we're looking for people with the right automotive experience to build a career in vehicle inspection. Whether your background is in light vehicles and WoF inspections, heavy vehicles and CoF inspections, or both, there could be an opportunity for you.

If you don't already hold the appropriate NZTA Vehicle Inspector authority, we'll support eligible candidates through the training and development required to move into vehicle inspection.

Why VINZ?

We look after our people with benefits that are genuinely worth having:

  • A paid day off for your birthday
  • Free life and trauma insurance
  • Mates' rates on pre-purchase inspections
  • Proper training and career development
  • Opportunities across our nationwide network
  • A supportive, straight-up team that's always ready for a laugh
About VINZ

We're specialists in vehicle inspection, and we're passionate about getting it right.

Every inspection matters. Our Vehicle Inspectors help ensure vehicles meet New Zealand's required safety and compliance standards, helping keep our roads and communities safe.

Across our network, our teams undertake Warrant of Fitness (WoF) inspections for light vehicles and Certificate of Fitness (CoF) inspections for heavy vehicles, depending on the inspection services offered at each branch.

The Opportunity

Already an authorised WoF or CoF Vehicle Inspector? We'd love to hear from you.

Not authorised yet? If you have the appropriate automotive qualifications and practical experience to meet NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi requirements for Vehicle Inspector appointment, we'd also like to talk.

Depending on your experience and eligibility, opportunities may include:

  • WoF Vehicle Inspection - light vehicles
  • CoF Vehicle Inspection - heavy vehicles
  • WoF and CoF inspection
  • Training and development towards the appropriate Vehicle Inspector authority

VINZ is a national business, so your career doesn't have to remain parked in one spot. You'll have opportunities to develop your technical knowledge, gain additional inspection authorities where appropriate and explore career opportunities across our network.

What You'll Bring

Ideally, you'll already hold the relevant NZTA Vehicle Inspector authority for WoF and/or CoF inspections.

Alternatively, you'll need to be able to meet NZTA's qualification and experience requirements to be appointed as a Vehicle Inspector for the relevant inspection category.

You'll also need:

  • A relevant automotive trade qualification or mechanical experience that meets NZTA requirements
  • Experience working with light or heavy vehicles
  • A full New Zealand driver licence
  • Strong reliability and sound judgement
  • A positive attitude and genuine team spirit

Not sure whether your experience meets the requirements? Check the eligibility criteria through the NZ Transport Agency .

Ready for a Career Change That Passes Inspection?

This is more than another job on the tools. It's an opportunity to get qualified, build a long-term career and play a direct role in keeping Kiwi roads safe.

Bring your light or heavy vehicle experience. We'll help you take it somewhere new.
