Automotive Technician / Auto Electrician - Relocate to Dunedin!
Train in Auckland. Relocate to Dunedin. Get Your Time Back.
Finish work. Be home for dinner. Actually afford the house you're eating it in. That is just a Tuesday in Dunedin.
We are looking for a technician who wants to build a serious career in modern vehicle technology, get paid to train in Auckland for three months, and then do it from a city where your money actually works for you.
$40 to $60 per hour depending on experience.
Most mechanics spend their careers changing parts.
Our technicians work on the technology shaping the future of the automotive industry.
Auto Diagnostics specialises in ADAS systems and automotive electrical work. Our technicians work on radar systems, cameras, vehicle sensors and modern electronics on late model vehicles across New Zealand.
This is not basic workshop work.
We are looking for a serious technician.

AUCKLAND TRAINING TO DUNEDIN OPPORTUNITY
We are offering a rare opportunity for the right person to:
Train in Auckland for 3 months alongside our experienced team
Build real skills in ADAS and modern vehicle systems
Then relocate to Dunedin to step into a long term role
This is built for someone who:
Is currently stuck in a workshop doing the same jobs, the same four walls, and the same traffic every day

You will be trained properly before stepping into the Dunedin role, so you are confident, capable and set up to succeed
You will be backed by a strong nationwide team, with structured support and regular contact with supervisors and operations
Once you relocate, you step into a solid, well supported role with consistent work and the opportunity to keep building your skills
Relocation support is provided to make the move as smooth as possible
Then you step into a lifestyle that gives you your time back
Think:
Uncrowded surf breaks
Fishing, diving and coastline on your doorstep
No traffic
Short commutes
More time outside of work
Less time sitting in traffic, more time actually living
This is not just a job. It is a career move and a better way of working
