Hi Catrin
Have you had a look at these? Mycareer.com.au also try jobsearch and the Canberra Times. I've had a quick look and there are a few jobs going which might be suitable. Try just entering mechanic or diesel in the search box, they don't seem to use the term diesel fitter there?!

Hi,
There is a place called Cooma Diesel in Fyshwick (that is the industrial part of Canberra) Cooma is about 1 hr drive away from the south side of Canberra, but I noticed they have a branch here in Fyshwick.
Maybe give them a email and take it from there?
PS I LOVE Canberra!!

PS Also if you see jobs advertised in Queanbeyan, NSW, its a very short drive away from the south side of Canberra towards the airport.
So can easily commute about 15-20 mins away from south Canberra.
