Serviceman / Yard Assistant – (with Hire Counter Progression Pathway)

Active Hire South- Archerfield

Are you hands-on, mechanically minded, and looking to build a long-term career in equipment hire? Active Hire is currently seeking a Serviceman / Assistant Manager to join our South Side team — with the goal of developing into a Branch Manager once you've built a strong working knowledge of our equipment and operations.

We're looking for someone who is practical, driven, and eager to learn, with a genuine interest in machinery and customer service.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Mechanical aptitude and experience with small engines
  • A current C class driver's licence
  • A forklift licence (or willingness to obtain one promptly)
  • A background in customer service
  • Experience in hire, trade, or a fast-paced service industry (advantageous)

Day-to-day responsibilities will include:

  • Assisting customers in the yard (including loading/unloading via forklift)
  • Checking equipment in and out, including paperwork and condition reports
  • Cleaning, basic servicing, and preparing equipment for hire
  • Occasional equipment deliveries and pickups (minimal)
  • Supporting phone enquiries during peak periods
  • Running equipment hire operations
  • Relief work at other branches as needed

Over time, and with the right attitude and capability, this role will evolve into supporting and eventually running the hire counter, and potentially into a Branch Manager— quoting, booking, coordinating hires, and providing expert advice to our customers, driving business growth and acting upon all opportunities.

Please note:

Final candidates will be required to complete a pre-employment medical and drug test prior to confirmation of employment.


Why join Active Hire?

  • Supportive, team-based work culture
  • Varied work with no two days the same
  • Strong internal training and clear progression pathway
  • Stable, growing business with long-term opportunities

If you're motivated, reliable, and ready to take the next step in your career, apply today. Shortlisted candidates will be contacted within 5 business days.
