About Norwood:

The power of our machinery put us on the map. But it's the power of our people and our network that sets us apart.

Norwood is the largest network selling and servicing premium agricultural machinery in New Zealand.


Kiwi farmers, growers, and contractors plough fields, harvest crops, and raise stock all over the country, from Cape Reinga at the top of the North Island, to Bluff at the bottom of the South.

We've made it our mission to be there too, setting a goal of being 90 minutes or less from any blade of grass in New Zealand.

We drive the performance and sustainability of New Zealand agriculture through technology and innovation.

We've been keeping New Zealand farmers moving for more than 70 years, and we intend to keep doing so for many years to come.

This is a great chance to join our Manawatu Dealership team in Palmerston North. We are currently recruiting for a Field Service Technician to carry out both workshop and location-based servicing and repairs.


You will be working with world class brands of machinery and equipment including New Holland, Kubota, Braud, Vaderstad, Horsch and Lemken.

You will be fully supported by our dedicated Technical Support Specialists with ongoing training at our own National Training Centre in Palmerston North.


To be successful you will have:

  • Minimum 3 years' experience in the diagnosis, repair and servicing of agricultural or other heavy diesel machinery.
  • High standards of workmanship and ability to accurately complete required paperwork
  • Ability to work both autonomously and as part of a team
  • Computer skills including the use of OEM diagnostic software
  • Great customer service and communication skills
  • Excellent work ethic determined to deliver both a timely and high standard of service and repairs to our customers


You will be required to work a minimum of 40 hours per week within our core business days and hours of Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm, and also participate in an On-Call Roster to provide on-call support to Norwood customers.

If you want to be part of the future of New Zealand's ag industry and make things happen, then we'd love to hear from you
