About Zeder Corporation

Zeder Corporation
is a proudly Australian-owned and operated business, built on the combined strengths of
Fulcrum Suspensions

Operating both nationally and internationally (with presence in the US and UK), 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

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.

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.

More specifically, your responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Diagnosing and repairing suspension, steering, braking, and underbody components to Fulcrum standards

• Performing precision wheel alignments and balancing

• 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

As our ideal candidate, you're a

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.
