It depends where you're going to live and whether it's a franchise or 'general garage' but roughly $50k to $75k, or there's the self employed route.......

Re: NZ wages for Auto Electricians and mechanics
Thanks sirplug, we've not decided yet where abouts we would live, still looking into it but fairly open. North and South Islands . In the UK I work for a privately owned garage, prefer it to the dealerships. I thought around $50k, suprised at $75K.... what sort employer and location would you be looking at for the higher wages.

I've come over and currently setting up as a mobile mechanic, as I didn't want to be another 'employee'. It's in it's early stages but the name's going about and I'm starting to get a few recommendations..........

You'll be looking at Auckland Centre and a dealership. Thought about setting up on your own?

I'm from just up the road, Chesterfield lol, and my girlfriends originally from Newcastle. We have our interview coming up soon so fingers crossed all goes well.
Good luck with your buisness too
