Not specified

Adecco is proud to partner with a large, essential transport operator currently undergoing significant fleet growth of 20–30% across Victoria. With major investment being made into new vehicle technology, including electric, hybrid and hydrogen vehicles, this is an excellent opportunity for mechanics seeking long‑term stability and career progression, rather than simply chasing an hourly rate.


The Opportunity

Due to rapid fleet expansion and the introduction of new vehicle platforms, our client is seeking qualified Diesel and Heavy Vehicle Mechanics to join their growing maintenance teams.

This organisation is focused on building capability for the future, investing in training and upskilling as new technologies roll out. With an Enterprise Bargaining Agreement currently under negotiation, upcoming improvements to shift structures and overtime arrangements are expected.

Rather than competing aggressively on hourly rates, the business focuses on:

  • Career longevity
  • Training and development
  • Stability within an essential services environment


What We’re Looking For

  • Trade‑qualified Diesel Motor Mechanics or Heavy Vehicle Mechanics
  • Exposure to bus and/or truck maintenance
  • Experience with Volvo and/or Mercedes vehicles is highly regarded
  • Demonstrated ability to diagnose faults and work safely in a busy workshop
  • A strong willingness to learn and upskill, particularly as EV, hybrid and hydrogen vehicles are introduced
  • Full working rights only at this time
  • Willingness to complete medical assessment and police checks


What’s On Offer

Permanent roles with a stable, essential services operator Choice of multiple workshop locations across Melbourne Exposure to next‑generation vehicle technology Structured training and development pathways Supportive team environment with long‑term career prospects Conditions governed by a negotiated EBA, delivering consistency and fairness.


Next Steps

If you’re a qualified mechanic looking to move beyond short‑term roles and build a career with a growing, future‑focused fleet, we’d like to hear from you. Either apply via the link or reach out to me directly on my mobile on 04•• ••• 753 or by email on jos•••••••••@adecco.com.au.
