We offer a comprehensive range of disability and rehabilitation equipment, housing modifications, and support services that empower people to live fuller, more independent lives.

About the role

While the role involves refurbishing and repairing disability and rehabilitation equipment inhouse to our high standards, our clients are always front of mind in everything we do. The position suits someone with a tooling and mechanical aptitude.

• Evaluating equipment for repair or refurbishment
• Refurbishing components
• Replacing faulty/damaged parts
• Reassembly of equipment

Training for the role will be provided and there is career advancement pathways and industry training opportunities for the right candidate.

• An excellent work ethic, reliability and energy
• Basic mechanical and/or electrical aptitude
• The desire and ability to learn
• Basic experience using computers
• Previous experience as a field or workshop equipment technician is an advantage
