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: Many 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

DEFINITELY NOT A 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 & various customer sites – 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.

READY TO STOP WASTING YOUR TIME?

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 & Service Trucks and make it better just by being there.
