Younity Community Services – Deception Bay QLD

Younity is looking for a creative and skilled bike mechanic/technician to join our PUSH team

About PUSH PUSH is Younity’s hands‑on, youth development program that’s all about building confidence, skills, and brighter futures — one bike at a time. We run practical learning experiences in schools and communities where young people build their own bikes, gain mechanical know-how, and walk (or ride) away with a real sense of achievement.

About the role We’re looking for a Bicycle Technician who’s keen to be more than a mechanic. You’ll manage our Deception Bay workshop, work as part of the project team delivering school-based sessions, and be out and about in the PUSH Van visiting skate parks and other youth spaces.

You don’t need to be a youth worker — but you do need to enjoy being around young people and be willing to share your knowledge in a way that makes them feel capable and included. Whether it’s showing someone how to tighten a brake cable or helping them build an entire bike from scratch, you’ll play a vital role in assisting them to learn real, transferable skills.

Key responsibilities:

Maintain and manage our bike workshop at Deception Bay and the mobile PUSH van

Inspect, repair, and prepare donated bikes so they’re safe and fit for purpose

Deliver structured and informal bike-building activities with young people (alongside our team)





Support our school-based and community programs by tutoring basic to advanced mechanical skills

Work closely with the youth development team to create engaging, hands‑on learning sessions

Help keep our equipment, tools, and parts in good working order

We’re looking for someone who has:

Previous experience in a bicycle mechanic, technician, or customer service role (bike industry preferred)

Strong knowledge of bikes and a love for cycling

Good communication skills and a friendly, helpful attitude

The ability to work both independently and as part of a fun, collaborative team

A “can do” approach and a passion for sharing skills with others

A current Working With Children Check (or willingness to obtain one – essential)

Nice to have (but not a dealbreaker):

Experience tutoring, mentoring, or working with young people in any setting

Training or workshop facilitation experience

Why work with us?

You’ll be part of something meaningful that makes a real difference in young people’s lives

Flexible and supportive team environment

Get hands‑on with a growing and unique program

Travel around Moreton Bay in our decked‑out PUSH van

Plenty of laughs, purpose, and pedal‑powered goodness

Based in Deception Bay with travel across Moreton Bay in our mobile PUSH van

Casual or Part‑Time, 21-35 hours a week (with chance to grow)

$37-40 per hour + super + salary packaging

Start ASAP
