Ready to roll up your sleeves and work around vehicles every day? Join Manheim and step into a hands-on role where no two days are the same. If you enjoy being active, working outdoors, and supporting a fast-paced operation, this could be the role for you.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Keep things moving – outdoor, physical work in a busy auction environment
  • Use handheld technology to check in assets and keep records up to date
  • Pitch in across teams to keep operations running smoothly
  • Get involved on the yard - move, organise and prepare vehicles for auction

Enjoy practical, on-the-go work with zero desk time?
