Automotive Technician / Mechanic

Join Our Team as an Automotive Mechanic at Motor Works!

Are you an experienced mechanic looking for a supportive, friendly environment where you can really make a difference? We’d love to hear from you!

If you enjoy working on a variety of vehicles and are looking for a change in 2026 give us a call.

We’re based at 340 Tuam Street, right in the heart of the city, between Fitzgerald Ave and Barbadoes Street.

What’s the role?

You’ll be working Monday to Friday, 8am-5pm, but there’s flexibility if you need it. We’re all about work-life balance, so we’re happy to accommodate where possible.

What we’re looking for:

• Experience – Previous workshop experience is a must. If you’ve got it, we want to hear from you!
• Team player – While you’ll have the independence to work on your own, we’re a small, close-knit team that supports each other.
• Clear communicator – Good written and verbal communication skills are key.
• Reliable and positive – We’re looking for someone who shows up with a "can-do" attitude and takes pride in their work.
• Attention to detail – We love a mechanic who is as thorough as they are skilled.
• Sense of humour – We work hard but know how to have a laugh!
• Valid driver’s license – A clean, full NZ driver’s license is required.

• Competitive hourly rate, negotiable based on experience.
• Work in a clean, well-equipped workshop with all the tools you need.
• A supportive, friendly team who genuinely care about each other.
• Ongoing training to help you keep your skills sharp.
• The chance to work on a wide range of vehicles – no two days are the same.
• A large, heated workshop, so you’re comfortable even on chilly mornings.
• Onsite staff car parking – no need to worry about finding a park!

A current WOF certification is a bonus, but not essential. If you don’t have it, don’t worry! We’re more than happy to help you get a WOF inspector certificate.

To apply, you’ll need:

• NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa.

At Motor Works, we believe our success is built on the energy, passion, and enthusiasm of our team members. If you're looking for a fresh challenge and want to join a team that values both hard work and a great attitude, get in touch with us today!
