Why you'll love it here:
✔️ Enjoy a 9-day fortnight - hello long weekends!
✔️ Friendly, inclusive team culture
✔️ Stunning location - beaches, bush, and everything in between
✔️ Multiple roles available
✔️ Great pathway into secure, long-term council work

What we're looking for:
🔧 Trade-qualified mechanics - light, heavy, or diesel
🔧 Experience in plant or fleet maintenance
🔧 Bonus if you've worked with 12/24V electrical systems
🔧 Skilled at diagnosing and fixing issues efficiently
🔧 Safety-focused with a strong work ethic
🔧 Team players who communicate well
🔧 White Card required
