Our Story

TJP Auto started 8 years ago with one clear goal:
to change the way people view independent workshops.

We were tired of hearing the same stories โ€” poor communication, hidden costs, rushed jobs, and customers left in the dark. So we built a business based on:

โœ… Honesty โ€” no bull, just straight answers
โœ… Quality โ€” work done properly, not cheaply
โœ… Communication โ€” customers informed every step
โœ… Technology & training โ€” staying ahead of the industry

Today, TJP Auto is known as a leader in advanced diagnostics, suspension and GVM upgrades, and high-quality mechanical repairs And fixing what others can not or will not fix. We back that quality with a market-leading 30 month 30,000km warranty, and we continue to invest in the latest tooling, equipment, and industry best-practice every year.

We're not just fixing cars โ€”
we're rebuilding trust in the automotive trade.

And we want someone who's proud to be part of that.

About the Role

We're looking for a technician who wants to grow their craft โ€” either:

โœ… A 3rdโ€“4th year apprentice
โœ… OR a qualified technician wanting more than just service schedules

Someone who wants to:

Develop suspension, steering & general mechanical repair skills

Work in a place where quality matters more than speed
