Join our growing team

CJ Tech Services is a busy, family-owned mobile mechanical business servicing South West Victoria. We’re looking for a qualified plant or agricultural mechanic, or a capable third- or fourth-year apprentice, to help us meet strong customer demand.

You’ll work alongside our owner and head mechanic, Corey, who brings more than 10 years of specialised Caterpillar experience. Put your existing skills to work, develop your electronic diagnostic knowledge and enjoy variety across machinery, jobs and customer sites.

About the work

Earthmoving equipment is our core business, but we also work on agricultural machinery, trucks, generators and other plant. We service equipment across brands and ages, providing routine maintenance, breakdown repairs, rebuilds, welding, fabrication, auto-electrical diagnostics and repairs, and air conditioning servicing.

We use genuine OEM diagnostic software alongside our multi-brand diagnostic tools.

Your responsibilities will include

- Carrying out mobile servicing, maintenance and mechanical repairs.
- Diagnosing and repairing hydraulic, mechanical and electrical faults.
- Attending a wide variety of customer sites for breakdowns and fault-finding, while adhering to all site safety and OHS requirements.
- Completing component repairs and assisting with rebuilds.




- Using—or learning to use—our multi-brand electronic diagnostic laptops.
- Accurately identifying required parts and organising parts, tasks and priorities to keep jobs running efficiently.
- Clearly communicating work completed, outstanding repairs and next steps to customers and the team.
- Taking ownership of jobs suited to your experience, with support available.

About you You’re practical, reliable and take pride in getting the job done properly. You bring a sound mechanical foundation and are keen to keep learning.

We’re looking for

- A relevant plant or agricultural mechanical qualification, or current third- or fourth-year apprenticeship standing.
- Hands-on earthmoving, plant or agricultural machinery experience, with practical hydraulic and electrical knowledge and fault-finding ability.
- An interest in electronic diagnostics and the ability to read and interpret electrical and hydraulic schematics.
- The ability to work independently within your capabilities and as part of a small team.
- Safe work habits, clear communication, respect for customers and their equipment, and a current driver’s licence.





Heavy diesel mechanics with substantial plant or agricultural machinery experience are also welcome to apply. This is an experienced role. It is not suitable for first-year apprentices or applicants with only passenger vehicle or truck experience.

What we offer

- Pay of $30–$40 per hour plus super: your rate will be discussed based on your apprenticeship stage, qualifications, relevant experience and skills.
- Regular hours: five days per week, usually 8:15 am–5:00 pm, with one RDO per month through our accrued RDO system.
- Optional overtime: available if you want additional hours.
- Family-friendly flexibility: flexibility around family commitments by arrangement.
- Vehicle benefits: the option of a work vehicle or fuel card. If you choose to use your own vehicle, maintenance can be carried out during paid work hours, with parts supplied at our wholesale cost. Arrangements will be discussed with the successful applicant.
- Support and development: learn alongside Corey, build modern diagnostic skills and enjoy varied work in a small team that values your contribution.
