About Zuma
Zuma is a locally owned and operated dealership with over 20 years in the Fraser Valley. We service and sell aerial lifts, telehandlers, and forklifts from top brands like Genie, JLG, Skyjack, and Haulotte. This is your chance to finish your Red Seal while working in a niche trade that offers cleaner, lighter-duty work than trucks or dirt equipment — with better long-term career prospects.
Why Join Zuma?
● Pay: $30–$45/hr depending on experience
● Full Benefits: Health, dental, vision, paid time off
● Red Seal Pathway: Complete your ticket with us
● Niche Industry: Learn aerial lifts and telehandlers — a specialized and growing field
● No Out-of-Town Travel: Be home every night, no commuting to Surrey or Vancouver
● Experienced Mentorship: Work alongside Red Seal mechanics and senior techs
● Clean Shop: Heated bays, stocked parts, diagnostic software and specialty tools
Who We’re Looking For
● 2nd to 4th year apprentice heavy-duty, diesel, or industrial mechanics
● A real passion for being a mechanic — you think about solutions to problems instead of waiting for a foreman to tell you what to do
● Already have some good basic experience under your belt and ready to advance your skills further
● Strong interest in hydraulics, electrical, and engines
● Safety-first mindset and good work ethic
● Eager to learn a specialized industry and complete your Red Seal
● Training provided, including arranged manufacturer training direct from Genie, JLG, Skyjack, and Haulotte
