Heavy Diesel Truck Mechanic
Visa sponsorship
Automotive · Auckland, New Zealand · Full-Time · $36 - $45/hr · Visa: Employer sponsored
Two heavy diesel mechanic seats are open in Auckland, and the employer is not a faceless giant: it is a family-owned fleet maintenance specialist with a modern workshop where safety comes first.
This is spanner-in-hand work, mainly on truck and trailer fleets, with a share of buses and light commercial vehicles. You put in at least 40 hours a week, and a Saturday half-day is rostered in.
The company is an Accredited Employer and supports visa transfers, so visa sponsorship is part of how it hires.
