Heavy Diesel Mechanic

HEAVY DIESEL MECHANIC – AUCKLAND

KEEP SPECIALIST EQUIPMENT MOVING.

We’re looking for an experienced Heavy Diesel Mechanic to join our Auckland team and help maintain a diverse fleet of trucks, plant and specialist equipment.

This is a role for someone who enjoys solving problems. Our equipment isn't always off-the-shelf, so you'll need to be able to diagnose issues, think laterally and find practical solutions when the obvious fix isn't always the right one.

You'll work across a varied fleet including vacuum trucks, hydro excavation units, sweepers, water blasters, tankers and other custom-built equipment.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

• Carrying out servicing, maintenance and repairs across our heavy vehicle and specialist fleet
• Diagnosing mechanical faults and finding practical solutions to keep equipment operating
• Working on hydraulic, pneumatic and mechanical systems
• Carrying out preventative maintenance and inspections
• Responding to breakdowns and equipment issues as required
• Fabricating, modifying or adapting components where needed
• Working with the wider Fleet and Operations teams to minimise downtime
• Maintaining accurate service and repair records
• Keeping your work area, tools and equipment safe and organised

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We're looking for a mechanic with broad practical skills who can apply their trade to equipment that isn't always straightforward.

You'll have:

• A relevant Heavy Diesel / Automotive trade qualification
• Experience working on heavy vehicles, plant or specialist equipment
• Strong diagnostic and problem-solving skills
• A practical, "work it out" approach when faced with unusual faults or repairs
• The ability to work independently and manage competing priorities
• A strong commitment to safety and quality workmanship

Experience or skills in the following would be advantageous, but aren't essential:

• Basic electrical fault-finding and repairs
• Welding and fabrication
• Panel beating or body repairs
• Hydraulics and pneumatic systems
• Working on custom-built or modified equipment

WHAT MATTERS MOST

You don't need to be an expert in everything. We're looking for someone who knows their trade, isn't afraid to have a go and can work out how to solve a problem when the standard approach doesn't quite fit.

WHY JOIN INTERGROUP?

• SPECIALIST EQUIPMENT – Work on a diverse fleet of vacuum trucks, hydro excavation units, sweepers, water blasters, tankers and custom machinery
• PROBLEM-SOLVING ROLE – Use your trade knowledge and practical skills to diagnose and solve a wide range of mechanical challenges
• VARIED WORK – No two days are necessarily the same, with different equipment, repairs and challenges across the fleet
