Join The Allied Family
Forklift Mechanics Wanted in Perth
Plant, diesel and forklift mechanics needed for workshop and field service positions. Allied Forklifts is a family owned WA business, and we’re growing. Great work, backed by one of the best lifestyles in the country.
Why Allied Forklifts
A Family Business That Values Its People
Allied Forklifts is a family owned business that values our employees and strives to achieve a safe, enjoyable and mutually rewarding workplace. It’s our 30th year servicing West Australian businesses, and we’ve supplied over 6,000 new and used forklifts since 1996.
To achieve that, we’ve relied on good mechanics to pre-deliver, service and repair the equipment. With demand for our products and services continuing to grow, we need to add more mechanics to our team, both in the workshop and out in the field.
Workshop & Field Service Roles
Field servicemen are provided with a late model service vehicle, usable for travel to and from work. You’ll service and repair a huge range of LPG, diesel and electric forklifts across the Perth metro area, an oil leak on a container handler in Fremantle one morning, an electric stacker breakdown in Wangara that afternoon.
Flexibility, time management and the right attitude matter just as much as your mechanical skills.
What We’re Looking For
Basic Requirements
- Relevant trade qualifications supported by certification
- Self motivated
- Good communication and customer service skills
- Current drivers licence
Preference is given to candidates holding a current LPG repairers certificate and forklift licence.
Life in the West
Why Western Australia Is a Great Place to Build a Career
WA isn’t just a good place to work, it’s a genuinely great place to live. More affordable housing than the eastern states, some of the best beaches and weather in the country, and a resources and construction driven economy that keeps skilled tradespeople in real demand year round.
For a forklift mechanic, that means steady work, real career progression, and a lifestyle outside of it that’s hard to match, all without the traffic, cost of living, or grey skies of the bigger eastern capitals. Join Allied Forklifts and build your career somewhere worth living.
