Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand Isaac Group Full time

Are you ready to start something good?

About the role:
We are currently recruiting for a
Laboratory Technician within our Civil Engineering Laboratory team based in Christchurch.

With a full forward workload including some challenging & diverse projects ahead of us, we are excited to be able to offer this opportunity for an enthusiastic, motivated, and skilled person in our business.


You will be assisting our team with sampling, testing, and reporting of construction materials, working closely with the quarry crushing operations, asphalt plant, and the construction and paving divisions of the company.

This is a hands-on and physical job, requiring a reasonable degree of physical capability.


The nature of the work may require night shifts and weekend work, as well as occasionally travelling to other regions and staying away from home.


Your onsite training and mentoring will be tailored to your needs with a view to progressing your career as far as you want to take it.


If you want to experience working with a well-established Construction Company; large enough to deliver excellence across multiple disciplines whilst remaining small enough to have a family feel, then this could be the role for you.


Duties will include:

  • Performing laboratory testing of aggregates and bituminous products to a high level of accuracy.
  • Field testing at engineering projects undertaken by Isaac Construction and external clients.
  • Participating in activities necessary for the running of the laboratory and its equipment.

Key Skills & Experience:

  • Having scientific, engineering, or construction training, or laboratory experience is a definite advantage but not essential.
  • Be experienced in the use of MS Word and Excel.
  • Be comfortable working sole charge and in a team environment.
  • Hold a minimum Class 1 full clean driver licence is essential (being able to drive a manual vehicle is an advantage).

In Return, We Offer:
Joining the Isaac Construction family means securing your place in a vibrant and supportive work environment.

Your commitment will be rewarded with:
-
Stability: A full-time 40hrs per week permanent role.
-
Growth: We have our own award-winning internal learning and development team dedicated to your success, as well as access to external training programmes where needed.
-
Compensation: A competitive remuneration package that reflects your skills and dedication.
-
Versatility: The chance to broaden your skillset by exploring various construction aspects within our dynamic business.
-
Wellness: Free medical and life insurance coverage as well as a range of other initiatives.
-
Safety: Backed by relevant ISO 45001 accreditations, we take a Safety-first approach in all aspects of civil construction. Further to this, all necessary PPE will be provided.

Why Choose Us? In 1950 our company was formed by two passionate conservationists - Sir Neil and Lady Isaac. Their legacy has left us with a unique ownership model
- as far as we know, we are the only civil construction company in the world that is owned by a conservation and wildlife trust


These days we are part of the Isaac Group, a collection of civil construction businesses working across the South Island.

Our divisions cover the full spectrum of civil works, construction, paving, sealing, traffic management, materials testing, surveying, quarrying, asphalt plants, transport, and project management.


Join Us:

If you are ready to join a team that embodies family values, thrives on innovation, and is committed to a sustainable future, we encourage you to apply.

Please note that this opportunity is open exclusively to individuals with the right to live and
work in New Zealand.
