Accessory Fitter — Full Time — We'll Train the Right Person

Ready to learn a trade? We'll teach you everything else.

We're after one person to join our fitting workshop full time. You don't need experience. You don't need to know what a bullbar bolts to. What you need is to turn up on time, listen, have a crack, and care about doing the job properly.

Everything else, we teach you.

Who we are

Offroad Animal Bayswater is a family-owned business. We're not a big corporate shop — the team is small enough that everyone knows everyone, and the person who trains you is the person you'll be working next to every day. Our workshop is modern, clean, well set up, and properly equipped. You won't be scratching around for tools.

What you'll be doing

You'll be fitting 4x4 and towing gear to customer vehicles — bullbars, roof racks, canopies, tubs, side steps, driving lights, snorkels and suspension, plus towbars, wiring harnesses, brake controllers and general 12V electrical work.

Day to day that means:

• Working from fitting instructions to get gear on straight, tight and right the first time

• Drilling, cutting, mounting and wiring — hands-on work, every day

• Running your own jobs start to finish once you're up to speed

• Keeping your bay tidy and your work to a standard you'd be happy to see on your own car

• Treating customer vehicles like they're worth more than they are

What we're actually looking for

This is the important part. We would rather take on someone green with the right attitude than someone experienced with the wrong one. We're looking for:

• You show up. On time, every day, ready to work. This is non-negotiable and it's the number one thing we're screening for.

• You listen and take direction. You'll be shown how we do things. Do it that way until you've earned the right to suggest better.

• You ask when you don't know. Guessing on a customer's car costs everyone. Asking costs nothing.

• You want to get good at something. Not just collect a pay packet — actually get good.

• You take pride in your work. If it's crooked, you do it again. Nobody should have to tell you.

• You're a decent person to be around. Small team. Everyone has to pull their weight and get along.

What you don't need

• Trade experience or qualifications

• Your own tools

• Any prior knowledge of 4x4 gear

What you do need

• A current driver's licence — you'll be moving customer vehicles

• The right to work in Australia

• To be physically fit — you're on your feet, lifting gear and working under vehicles

• Basic hand tool sense (if you've pulled apart a dirt bike or built something in the shed, you're ahead)

What's in it for you

• A real trade skill. Full on-the-job training from experienced fitters. You'll go from knowing nothing to running your own jobs.

• Tools and uniform supplied. You don't turn up with a shopping list.

• A proper workshop. Modern, well-equipped, clean, and set up so you can do good work.

• A family-owned team. No corporate nonsense, no being a number. If you're good, we notice.

• Real hours. Regular full-time hours with a knock-off time you can plan your life around. Weekends are yours.

• Staff discounts on gear for your own vehicle.

• A path forward. Do this well and there's a career here — senior fitter, workshop leadership, and beyond. We'd rather promote from inside.

Money

Competitive and based on what you bring, not what's on your résumé. Come in with the right attitude and we'll look after you.

How to apply

Hit Apply and send us your résumé. It doesn't need to be flash — a page is plenty.

More important: in your cover note, tell us in a few lines why you want to do this work, and one thing you've stuck at even when it got hard. That's what we'll read first. Applications without it go to the bottom of the pile.

We'll be in touch with everyone we shortlist. If you're a good fit, expect a chat and a walk through the workshop.
