At Allight, we don't just supply equipment—we power industries.

From mining and infrastructure to agriculture and critical services, our solutions have been keeping Australia moving since 1988. Behind that capability is a team of skilled, hands‑on technicians who take pride in keeping critical equipment operating in some of the toughest environments in the country.

Your strengths

timesheets and other job documentation.

- A recognised trade qualification as a Heavy Vehicle Mechanic, Diesel Mechanic, Light Vehicle Technician or another relevant mechanical trade.

- Sound diagnostic and fault-finding skills, with the ability to work through technical problems logically and identify practical solutions.

- The confidence and self-motivation to work independently at customer sites while knowing when to seek additional technical support.

- A safety-focused approach and a commitment to following procedures, assessing risks and maintaining a safe work environment.

- Qualified communication skills and the ability to build positive working relationships with customers and colleagues.

- A customer-focused mindset, taking pride in providing reliable service and keeping customers informed.A
