Wellington Central, Wellington, New Zealand EmployMe Solutions Limited Full time

Job reference:

At EmployMe Solutions, we're not just about filling jobs – we're about matching skilled professionals with roles where they can thrive. If you're a Truck Technician looking for a workshop that values your time, talent, and torque-wrench technique, we need to talk.

We've teamed up with a big name in the diesel truck world - and they're on the lookout for a sharp, hands-on Truck Technician to join their Wellington crew. If you're after more than just another workshop job, this is your chance to build a career with people who've got your back and opportunities that keep you moving forward.

About the Role:

In this position, you'll be responsible for a wide range of mechanical work across commercial vehicles - from routine servicing and COF repairs to fault diagnostics, breakdowns, and major overhauls. You'll be based in a clean, modern, and fully equipped workshop with all tools and equipment provided. Whether you're looking to take on more complex work, advance your technical skills, or join a team that truly values its people, this opportunity offers it all.

What We're Looking For:

  • Qualified Diesel Technician or Heavy Automotive Mechanic
  • Experience in truck servicing, maintenance, and repairs
  • Top notch diagnostic skills
  • Team attitude, good communication, and a sense of humour wouldn't go amiss
  • COF certification would be a bonus – or willingness to get it
  • Full NZ driver's licence

What's in it for You:

  • Top hourly rate + overtime and on call allowances – get paid what you're worth
  • Supportive, easygoing managers who've walked the workshop floor themselves
  • A fully equipped, professional workshop with everything you need on-site
  • Career progression that's the real deal – training, internal moves, leadership pathways
  • A team culture where you'll feel like part of the family, not a number

Why Wellington?

Wellington offers the best of both worlds - a vibrant capital city with a relaxed pace of life. Enjoy minimal traffic, coastal views on your breaks, and some of the best coffee in the country. Whether you're into fishing, rugby, or just looking for a change of scene, Wellington provides a great balance of lifestyle and opportunity.

Ready to turn the key on a new chapter?
