JAX Tyes & Auto Penrith are looking for a hands-on, driven Workshop Controller who’s ready to take ownership of our day-to-day operations and performance of our busy, automotive workshop.

If you’re the person technicians respect, management relies on, and customers indirectly benefit from—you’ll thrive here.

What Makes This Role Different

This isn’t just supervision. This is real leadership in action :

The role

Managing the day-to-day operations of the workshop, workflow, and resource allocation.

You’ll be the go-to person for complex diagnostics and technical support as well as apprentices.

Providing leadership and mentoring to the workshop team, fostering a positive and productive work environment

Ensure JAX Inspect is completed on all vehicles and all work is completed to the highest standards of quality and in compliance with industry regulations

You’ll work closely with front -of-house-staff to assist in delivering a seamless customer experience

Provide Service Advise to customers when required

About You

Extensive experience in a similar workshop controller or automotive workshop management role.

Confident leader who can motivate without micromanaging and mentor

Strong technical knowledge of automotive systems and repair procedures

Excellent communication and customer service skills,



with the ability to build strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholders

Strong organisational and problem-solving skills, with the ability to multitask and prioritise effectively

A proven track record of leading and motivating a team to achieve high levels of performance

5 years’ experience as a qualified mechanic with hands-on experience across tyres and alignment,

Certificate II in Automotive Air Conditioning Technology (Preferred)

AIS Certificate

Organised, calm under pressure, and results-focused

We Offer

Highly market-competitive salary package + vehicle

Incentives and bonuses

Modern workshop with quality tools and systems

Genuine career security

Supportive leadership that backs your decisions

Stable, long-term role in a respected business

Why This Role Stands Out

This is your chance to step up and stay partly on the tools and become the person who drives the workshop forward. You won’t be just managing jobs—you’ll be shaping outcomes, standards, and success.
