**Senior Mechanical Draftsperson & Supervisor**

This could be a nice step up for someone who wants to take on a supervisor role and mentor other draftspeople. Perhaps a move to Tauranga may attract you? Perhaps a move into bulk material handling design and project delivery could interest you technically. Whatever it is for you, if this looks potentially relevant to you, get in touch

**The Company**
Design, manufacturing, and installation company in the bulk materials handling sector who work for most large industrial companies in New Zealand and have some clients in Australia.

The company design and supply conveying equipment, for moving products in factories from point to point. This is mostly mechanical conveying, e.g. screw conveyors, belt conveyors, drag chain conveyors, bucket elevators, etc.

Full Project Delivery: They also take it a step further doing a full scope of an existing plant, and provide new equipment into an existing plant, or for a completely new plant. They will do all the design work and 3D drafting, layouts, and then specify and project manage the civil and structural work, finally finishing with the conveying equipment and any other equipment a client may procure and have installed as part of the project. There is also all the ancillary equipment the company will build and have installed like walkways, handrails, ladders, and whatever else is required to service and operate the equipment.

**Why the Hire?**
The longstanding employee currently in this role has decided to move to Australia.

**Drafting & Drawign Managment Packages**
Autodesk Inventor and Vault.

**The Role**
We are looking for a Senior Mechanical Draftsperson. This role is predominantly design drafting but because they do also have a junior and some subcontractors, they need someone to act in a senior and supervisor role, doing drafting work and reviewing the work of others in the team as well. In addition to the junior draftsman there are two virtually full-time drafting contractors, and another two that are part time.

The main role is mechanical engineering and the company’s core business is conveying equipment. However over recent years they have grown quite substantially by taking on civil works too. Although they subcontract it all out they do have Project Managers that handle this side of the work.

This role will also liaise internally with the company’s Civil/Structural Engineer because they are providing structures that have to be professionally designed and signed off to meet the New Zealand standards.

You will create fabrication drawings which will then require you to liaise closely in-house with the Workshop Manager and workshop staff (e.g., fabricators, welders etc.), and with the installation team too.

Short Trips away: From time to time, you will travel to a client sight to do a site measure up. This will typically be just a day trip in NZ, or 2 to 3 days away if in Australia.

Experience with using 3D Laser Scan data an advantage: Often the company will get a third party to do a 3D laser scan of a plant so that new equipment can be designed and positioned accurately. So, it would be helpful if you have some experience using 3D Laser Scanned data previously.

The company are open to someone learning their materials handling industry sector. As long as you have an ability to pick up new things and learn, have a good attitude and work ethic, then the company are likely to be able to provide training. There is also an extensive library of projects undertaken to draw from.
