Visa sponsorship

Automotive · Whangarei, New Zealand · Full-Time · $30 - $40/hr · Visa: Employer sponsored

Whangarei has a workshop that has been trading for years and is still growing, and it needs an experienced Automotive Technician or Automotive Electrician. A motor mechanic or an auto electrician who wants a change and enjoys learning would suit. Cars, vans and light commercial vehicles come through the doors, and the workshop is an authorised parts and service centre for a manufacturer, with factory support and training courses.
