Motorhome Tech / Mech / Auto Electr

Introduction

Have you dreamed of a job that combines your love of the outdoors and exploring NZ with your passion for working on modern vehicles? Keen to join the tourism industry as it takes off again? Want to work in a fun environment with a team that genuinely enjoys working together? It's time to make your dream a reality.

Who is Wilderness?

Wilderness is an NZ owned family company that has been a leader in the tourism industry for the past 18 years. We not only rent motorhomes to locals and international visitors but we also sell motorhomes to discerning Kiwis. For the past ten years, we have been the exclusive New Zealand distributor of some of Germany's top motorhome brands.

We enable our customers - both rental and retail - to create remarkable memories by getting out and exploring their country in a premium European motorhome. But it's not just about the motorhome. Our team is committed to delivering outstanding customer experience and going beyond expectations. 

Over the COVID years, while our international borders were closed, we used the opportunity to refresh, redesign, and reinvigorate the business. With the borders now open, we are seeing unprecedented demand for our products and services. There's never a better time to join the Wilderness team.
