**Ready to Step Up or Step Further in Your Leadership Career? Join VINZ**

Are you an experienced Vehicle Inspector, Diesel Mechanic or Heavy Vehicle Technician already leading a team or someone who's had a taste of leadership and is hungry for more? VINZ is offering a unique opportunity to lead not just one, but multiple sites across the Lower North Island.

We're on the hunt for a **Branch Manager** to lead our **Palmerston North branch**, while also overseeing operations at our **Lower Hutt, Masterton, and Whanganui** sites. Whether you're already managing people or looking for that next leadership leap, this is your chance to step into a regional role with real impact and support.

**What Makes This Role Different?**
- ** Career Progression with Support**: You don't need to tick every leadership box yet If you've had some experience guiding a team or taking the lead, we'll back you with training and mentoring from experienced managers.
- ** Wider Impact**: Oversee and support teams across four branches including Palmerston North, Lower Hutt, Masterton, and Whanganui, and building consistency and culture across the region.
- ** Real Perks**: Competitive salary, birthday leave, free life and trauma cover, discounted health insurance, and free WoF inspections.
- ** National Growth Pathways**: As part of a wider network, VINZ offers room to move whether that's into senior leadership or other parts of the business.

**What You'll Bring**:

- ** Automotive Know-How**: You've worked with heavy vehicles, or in technical trades or inspections, and understand what makes a great workshop tick.
- ** Leadership Ambition**: Maybe you're already leading, or maybe you've just started mentoring or training others. Either way, you're ready to take ownership and step up.
- ** COFB Qualification (or eligibility)**: If you're unsure, check out the NZ Transport Agency website to see if you meet the requirements. Go to NZ Transport Agency
- ** People Skills**: You're approachable, clear, and know how to get the best out of a teamwhile also keeping customers front of mind.

**Why VINZ?**

VINZ is where careers grow. We value potential just as much as experience and support our people to lead, learn, and level up. If you want a role with purpose, autonomy, and progression, you'll find it here.
