About Zeder Corporation

Zeder Corporation is a proudly Australian‑owned and operated business, built on the combined strengths of Fulcrum Suspensions and Redranger — two pioneering names in performance and aftermarket automotive solutions since the 1970s. Operating both nationally and internationally, Zeder designs, manufactures, and installs suspension components through its well‑known consumer‑facing brand, Fulcrum Suspensions, and supports a suite of global brands including SuperPro, Formula 4x4, Whiteline, and Nolathane.

Fulcrum is the name you’ll see on our workshop doors, but it’s Zeder driving the innovation, growth, and career pathways behind the scenes. We’re a close‑knit team with a big reach — committed to safety, performance, and delivering a top‑tier experience for both customers and our employees.

About the Opportunity

Zeder Corporation is looking for full‑time Automotive Technicians to join its Fulcrum Suspensions team across multiple locations, including Capalaba, Slacks Creek, Arundel, Stafford, Bundaberg, and Coopers Plains (QLD); Carrum Downs and Pakenham (VIC); and Arndell Park (NSW). Reporting to the Store Manager, this role focuses on high‑performance suspension work, GVM upgrades, and technical excellence in a fun and fast‑moving workshop environment. You’ll be part of a passionate team representing one of the most trusted suspension brands in Australia.

Responsibilities

  • Diagnosing and repairing suspension, steering, braking, and underbody components to Fulcrum standards
  • Fitting and fine‑tuning 4x4 lift kits, GVM upgrades, lowering systems, and performance modifications
  • Performing precision wheel alignments and balancing
  • Mentoring apprentices and contributing to team development
  • Completing AutoOptix video updates and customer‑friendly explanations
  • Maintaining a safe, clean, and compliant work environment
  • Completing service records and participating in toolbox talks
  • About You

    To qualify, you will need a Certificate III in Light Vehicle Mechanical Technology and a valid QLD driver’s licence. A minimum of 6 months’ experience working in an Australian workshop is essential.

    We also welcome applications from passionate 3rd and 4th year apprentices looking to broaden their experience in suspension and performance upgrades.

    Additional Skills and Background

  • Certificate IV in Automotive Mechanical Diagnosis
  • Suspension, underbody, or performance tuning experience
  • Wheel alignment and balancing expertise
  • Prior experience mentoring apprentices
  • Familiarity with aftermarket or retail auto service environments
  • As our ideal candidate, you’re a car enthusiast who loves variety and isn’t afraid to get hands‑on with MX5s, GTRs, Porsches, and 4x4s alike. You’ll be safety‑focused, a team player, and open to learning and feedback. You’ll thrive in a tight‑knit crew, where Friday knock‑off drinks and team bonding over 4x4 clean‑up trips are the norm.

    This is an ideal opportunity if you’re ready to step beyond general servicing and into a role that offers technical depth, career progression, and the chance to work with some of the most exciting vehicles on Australian roads. For the right candidate, there is also long‑term potential to progress into a workshop or branch leadership role – learning the Fulcrum way and growing with the company as new locations open.

    Benefits

  • Competitive salary of $70,000 to $82,000 + Superannuation, paid weekly, along with a $1,500 sign‑on bonus (paid in two parts at 3 and 6 months)
  • Monthly productivity and efficiency‑based rewards
  • Generous employee discounts on suspension products and installation
  • Tool purchase support (including payroll deduction options)
  • Supplied uniforms and shared workshop tools
  • Discounted gift cards and novated leasing
  • Ongoing training, certifications, and hands‑on product workshops
  • Career progression into store leadership and technical training pathways
  • Flexible work options (e.g. 7am–4pm, 9‑day fortnight, early finishes)
  • No weekend work (optional attendance for occasional car shows or training)
  • Minimal overtime (time off in lieu or Award rates if required) – we prioritise safety and balance over fatigue
  • Relocation assistance of up to $3,000 to reimburse reasonable moving expenses negotiable for the right candidate.

    Why Join Fulcrum Suspensions?

  • Be part of a company that designs and manufactures much of what you’ll be installing
  • Close relationship with engineers and R&D, offering a unique career path beyond standard mechanical work
  • Safe, supportive environment that prioritises technician wellbeing and quality workmanship over fatigue and rushed jobs
  • Work on a variety of exciting vehicles : everything from 4x4 off‑road builds to performance cars like GT‑Rs and Porsches
  • Long‑term career growth with a company that is actively expanding its workshop network
  • Ready to Join Us?

    If you’re a passionate technician / mechanic ready to level up your skills, join a team that’s just as enthusiastic about vehicles as you are. Whether you’re just finishing your apprenticeship or have years under your belt, we want to hear from you.

    Apply now and let’s build your future, one suspension system at a time.
