Tyre Workshop & Service Fitters

TIRED OF BORING JOBS? READY TO GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY?

Workshop & Service Tyre Fitters

WE'RE NOT YOUR AVERAGE TYRE SHOP

Forget everything you think you know about tyre jobs. We're Darra Tyres – a family business that's been keeping Brisbane rolling for decades, and we're about to shift into overdrive. While other shops are stuck in the past, we're revolutionising the game.

THE REALITY CHECK: Most tyre shops think it's all about being the cheapest. That's garbage. We're about being the BEST. Quality rubber, real expertise, and getting the job done right the first time.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

NOT ANOTHER SUIT-AND-TIE OPERATION

We need someone who gets it. Someone who knows the difference between a radial and a bias-ply without Googling it. Someone who can look at a worn tyre and tell a story about how that driver's been treating their ride.

YOU'RE THE RIGHT FIT IF:

  • You've got grease under your fingernails and you're proud of it
  • You can handle a tyre iron like it's an extension of your arm
  • You don't need a manual to figure out what's wrong with a wheel
  • You can talk to a truckie and a soccer mum with equal respect
  • You show up when you say you will (seriously, this shouldn't be revolutionary, but here we are)
  • You're not afraid of heavy lifting – we're talking truck tyres, not just passenger car rubber

BONUS POINTS IF:

  • You've got a forklift licence (but we can sort that out if you don't)
  • You know your way around wheel alignment
  • You can spot a dodgy tyre from across the workshop
  • You've worked with everything from lawn mower tyres to earthmover monsters

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

THE REAL DEAL

This isn't some corporate nonsense where you'll be filling out forms all day. You'll be:

Getting Your Hands Dirty:

  • Fitting tyres on everything from hatchbacks to heavy haulers
  • Balancing wheels until they spin like a fidget spinner
  • Fixing punctures that would make other shops throw in the towel
  • Running the workshop like you own it

Being the Expert:

  • Telling customers the truth about their tyres (even when they don't want to hear it)
  • Recommending the right rubber for the job, not just the most expensive
  • Solving problems that Google can't answer
  • Making sure every tyre that leaves here is road-ready

Building Something Real:

  • Working with a team that actually has your back
  • Learning from people who've been in the game longer than you've been alive (just kidding we aren't that old)
  • Growing your skills without sitting through boring PowerPoint presentations

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

WE PUT OUR MONEY WHERE OUR MOUTH IS

The Package:

  • Competitive pay that reflects your skills (not some corporate formula) - Our current service fitters are earning $70,000+
  • Overtime when you want it (we normally work 730am to 430pm Monday to Friday, Rostered Saturdays 7am - 12noon), time off when you need it
  • Training that actually teaches you something useful

The Environment:

  • Modern workshop with gear that works
  • Team that knows what they're doing
  • Customers who appreciate quality work
  • Family business that treats you like family (the good kind)

The Growth:

  • Learn from the best in the business
  • Get certified without the classroom torture
  • Advance based on what you can do, not what's on your resume
  • Be part of something that's going places

THE STRAIGHT TALK

WHAT WE'RE NOT:

  • A corporate machine that treats you like a number
  • A place where you'll be bored out of your mind
  • Somewhere that cuts corners to save a buck
  • A stepping stone job with no future

WHAT WE ARE:

  • A business that's been around long enough to know what works (Over 35 years)
  • A team that takes pride in quality work
  • A place where your experience matters more than your education
  • The kind of operation where you can build a real career (our longest employees are over 10 years)

THE DETAILS

WHEN AND WHERE:

  • Monday to Friday, 7:30 AM start (when the real work gets done)
  • Saturday rostered 7am - 12noon (more money in your pocket)
  • Darra location – easy to get to, plenty of parking
  • Immediate start for the right person

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • Current Manual driver's licence (obviously)
  • Ability to lift heavy stuff (without whinging about it)
  • Common sense (surprisingly rare these days)
  • Work ethic that doesn't need supervision, you're an adult and we will treat you as such.

If you're sick of jobs that don't challenge you, bosses who don't get it, and workplaces that treat you like you're replaceable – let's talk.

We're not looking for someone who needs their hand held. We want someone who can walk into our workshop and make it better just by being there.

Tyre Sales & Business Development Managers

READY TO REVOLUTIONISE THE TYRE GAME?

TYRE SALES PERSON & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER

WE'RE NOT YOUR AVERAGE TYRE SHOP. ARE YOU AVERAGE SALES?

Forget everything you think you know about selling tyres. We're Darra Tyres – a family business that's been keeping Brisbane rolling for decades, and we're about to shift the entire industry into high gear. While other shops are stuck playing the price game, we're revolutionising what it means to sell rubber.

THE BRUTAL TRUTH: Most tyre stores think everyone just wants the cheapest price. That's a race to the bottom, and we're not playing that game. We're about quality, service, and technology. You'll be selling certainty and products that are proven in all conditions.

THE CHALLENGE

TRANSFORM THE GAME

We're looking for someone who gets it. Someone who understands that selling tyres isn't about pushing the most expensive option – it's about solving problems and building relationships that last longer than the rubber we sell.

THE MISSION:Transform how people think about tyres. From truckers who need reliability to soccer mums who want safety, from fleet managers counting every cent to weekend warriors chasing adventure – you'll be the face of a revolution.

THE OPPORTUNITY:Join a business that's combining 40 years of street cred with cutting-edge technology. We're talking data-driven solutions, cost-per-kilometre analysis, and total ownership cost strategies that leave the competition wondering what just happened.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

NOT ANOTHER SUIT WHO TALKS BUT CAN'T DELIVER

We need someone who can walk the walk. Someone who knows the difference between selling and actually helping customers solve problems. Someone who gets excited about building relationships, not just hitting numbers.

YOU'RE OUR PERSON IF:

You've got sales in your blood and results on your resume

You can talk to a truckie at 6 AM and a CEO at 6 PM with equal respect

You understand that the best sale is the one where everyone wins

You know how to qualify prospects without sounding like a robot

You can close deals without being a pushy nightmare

You're hungry to learn and not afraid to get your hands dirty

EXPERIENCE THAT MATTERS:

Proven track record in sales (we want to see numbers, not just hear stories)

Experience in automotive, transport, or industrial sales is gold

Understanding of fleet management or commercial operations is a massive plus

Knowledge of tyres and their applications (or the brains to learn fast)

Ability to speak the language of cost-per-kilometre, not just price-per-tyre

THE INTANGIBLES:

Passion for transport, motorsports, and the machinery that moves the world

Problem-solving skills that go beyond "here's our cheapest option"

Relationship-building abilities that turn customers into advocates

Hunger for learning new technologies and industry developments

THE STRAIGHT TALK

WHAT WE'RE NOT:

A corporate machine that treats you like a number

A place where you'll be pressured to sell junk to hit targets

Somewhere that promises the world and delivers disappointment

A stepping stone job with no real future

WHAT WE ARE:

A business that's been around long enough to know what works

A team that takes pride in solving real problems for real customers

A place where your sales skills matter more than your university degree

The kind of operation where you can build a genuine career
