  • A strategic thinker with robust problem-solving and decision-making skills, who is comfortable in both office settings and on-site environments.
Why Join?
Holmes Group NZ has been growing consistently, yet their commitment to a family-like workplace remains. You will be instrumental in developing a leadership culture that values collaboration, empathy, and innovation. Join them and be part of a team that not only builds structures but also fosters strong, supportive relationships that last.
