Field Mechanic - Escape the Dealership Grind

Who We Are
Enerquip is a trusted Australian-owned company supplying high-quality industrial air compressor systems (primarily German-made). Based in Brendale with a second site in Sydney, we’ve been supporting industry across Australia since 1990.

We’re a small, down-to-earth team that values good workmanship, reliability, and looking after our customers. We’re not a high-pressure dealership. We look after our people and give them the space to do the job properly.

What You’ll Be Doing
This is a hands-on field role covering South East Queensland. You’ll:

• Install and commission compressed air systems and pipework

• Service and maintain customers’ air compressors

• Diagnose mechanical and system faults (very similar diagnostic thinking to cars and engines)

• Record work on an iPad using our service software

• Give practical advice to customers about their equipment

• Do occasional workshop repairs and look after our hire fleet

Once trained, the role has genuine variety — different sites, different problems, and the occasional country trip. You’re not stuck on the same cars or engines in the same workshop day after day.

Who We’re Looking For
We’re particularly interested in people who are over the dealership pressure or workshop grind. Ideal backgrounds include:

• Dealership mechanics (new or used)

• Ex-RACQ / roadside / mobile mechanics

• Engine reconditioning / engine rebuild specialists

• Automotive technicians who are good at diagnosing and problem-solving

You don’t need previous compressor experience. If you’re a solid mechanic who understands how mechanical systems work, we can teach you the compressed air side.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is Australian based and has the right to work here

• Enjoys diagnosing issues and figuring things out

• Takes pride in doing the job properly

• Is comfortable working independently in the field

• Has a current driver’s licence

• Is happy to work at heights occasionally

What’s In It For You

• Competitive pay

• Fully maintained company vehicle

• Tool allowance

• Monthly rostered day off

• Monday–Friday roster with some overtime available

• Stable work in an essential services industry

• Real variety instead of the same workshop grind every day

• Supportive, no-nonsense team culture

• Training provided on compressed air systems

Skills & Experience

Required:

• Trade-qualified mechanic (Automotive, Light Vehicle, or similar)

• At least 3–4 years hands-on mechanical experience (dealership, mobile, or engine reconditioning experience highly regarded)

• Current driver’s licence

• Good communication skills with customers

Beneficial but not essential:

• Forklift licence

• EWP ticket

• Experience with diagnostics or electrical systems
