Recruitment Consultant - Automotive Industry
Know the automotive aftersales world? Put that knowledge to work where it pays.
If you’ve spent years as a Service Advisor, Parts Interpreter, Warranty Administrator, Service Manager or Aftersales Manager, you already have most of what it takes to become a very good recruiter. You just haven’t been paid for it that way yet.
Think about your day now. You juggle impatient customers, workshop capacity and tight timeframes. You build trust quickly, sell the extra work the car actually needs, and hit monthly targets. You know who the good techs are, which dealerships are growing, and why people move fr om one site to another.
In agency recruitment, those same skills earn you uncapped commission.
The opportunity
We’re partnering with an established NZ-owned recruitment agency in Auckland that wants someone to grow a desk focused on the automotive and aftersales market. You’ll be finding and placing technicians, service advisors, parts specialists and aftersales leaders with dealerships and workshops across NZ.

What’s in it for you
- A competitive base salary of $85 – $95k plus uncapped commission. Good recruiters regularly earn well into six figures.
- Full training in recruitment, sales and business development. You bring the industry knowledge; they’ll teach you the rest.
- A people-focused role wh ere your earnings reflect the effort you put in.
