Heavy vehicles are the core of this Brisbane workshop, which is recruiting mechanics able to show real bench experience. Daily jobs range from fault-finding and scheduled servicing to repairs, full rebuilds and the occasional roadside breakdown, always finished to a professional standard.
Eligible candidates from overseas can be sponsored, so living outside Australia does not rule you out.
Put the truck makes, systems and tickets you know on your English CV. Create a truck mechanic CV with Build AI CV that highlights rebuilds and diagnostic work, because the workshop will want paperwork behind your claims.
