Automotive Technician / Auto Electrician - Relocate to ROTORUA!

Automotive Technician / Auto Electrician

Train in Auckland. Relocate to Rotorua. Ride More. Live Better.

Finish work. Hit the trails, the track or the lake before dinner. That is everyday life in Rotorua.

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 one of the most lifestyle-rich regions in New Zealand.

$40 to $60 per hour depending on experience.
A better lifestyle, without the Auckland grind.


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.

If you want to keep doing the same jobs forever, this role probably will not suit you.

AUCKLAND TRAINING TO ROTORUA 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 Rotorua 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
Wants more from their career
Is ready to learn, grow and push themselves
And wants a lifestyle outside of work

You will be trained properly before stepping into the Rotorua 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 is hard to beat

Think:

World class mountain biking on your doorstep
Crankworx and a strong riding culture
Trails you can ride before or after work
Hunting and fishing that is hard to beat
Motocross and off road riding
Wakeboarding and waterskiing on some of the best lakes in the country
Less time sitting in traffic, more time actually doing what you enjoy

This is not just a job. It is a career move and a lifestyle upgrade


THE ROLE

Auto Diagnostics is a mobile service supporting panel shops, workshops and repairers across New Zealand. You will be out on the road visiting our trade customers and helping them get vehicles safely back on the road. Company vehicle provided.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

You might be:

A qualified mechanic who wants to specialise in electrical and ADAS systems
An experienced auto electrician

Or

You might not tick every box yet but have the right attitude and a strong desire to learn

If that sounds like you, we still want to hear from you. At Auto Diagnostics we hire for attitude and train for skill
