We did the rounds recently and spoke to members of staff at different service centres to see what makes them tick at work and what they like about their jobs.
Here's what they had to say!

Tim is a mechanic at Lindisfarne
“I’ve been
here over 5 years and came straight here after Grade 11. I’ve done my
mechanical apprenticeship and am now training as an auto electrician as well as
learning more about the management side. They’ve provided all the training.
They really look after their staff.”

“My wife
and I wanted to come to Tasmania from South Africa and I found the opportunity
with Cooper Automotive. I had run a
workshop back home in South Africa so had the right experience and was
sponsored through a 457 skilled visa. I’m really happy here – we have a great
team culture and feel well looked after.”

“This is my
second time around at Cooper Automotive and I’ve now been here 9 years. I’ve
worked everywhere but came back as I know the people and like the work. It’s a
good atmosphere and even with the wide variety of cars we get we have the right
procedures in place so we know what’s on for the day. It helps if you’re
motivated and tech-savvy nowadays. And of course interested in cars!”
