**Job Description**:

- We're all about Good Work_

You've probably seen us around - on the roads, building sites, and in cities, towns, and locations all over New Zealand.

We build and maintain infrastructure that improves the quality of life across New Zealand and Australia. Everything, from roads and bridges, to energy, water and communication.

We're big and growing but this will always be a family business with family centric values that are REAL; Respect, Energy & Effort, Attitude and Leadership - driving who we are and what we do. We know that we're only ever as good as our people. That's why we're committed to hiring, developing and retaining the best in the industry.

What's in it for you?

At Fulton Hogan we truly care about the well-being of our people and giving them the tools they need to succeed. From medical and life insurance from day one, to increasing our KiwiSaver employer contributions for service milestones, family scholarship programmes, learning and development programmes, long service leave, and a slew of retail and supplier discounts, we're proud to offer a range of REAL Benefits that recognises the huge role our people play in our success. This role also offers a competitive remuneration package that will be commensurate with experience.

The Opportunity

This is a newly created senior IT role within the growing Group Data & AI team, arising due to the increasing workload resulting in the need to split the existing role into two. You will be responsible for a Data Engineering team of 15 staff staff (mix of permanent and contract).

You will undertake the following:

- Management and technical leadership of the Data Engineering team within the Group Data and AI department.
- Contribute to creating a performance culture within the Data & AI Team as part of the overall leadership group.
- Technical ownership of the EDP (Enterprise Data Platform) including development to meet business requirements, ensuring reliability and consistent speed of data refresh.
- Quality of outputs from the development and engineering processes
- Thought leadership and recommendations of technical improvements within the Fulton Hogan data environment.

What you’ll be doing - A day in the life

Through effectively.
- Manage the delivery of the EDP roadmap and backlog items.
- Provide technical leadership in the development and expansion of the EDP.
- Ensure the Data Engineering team adheres to best practices for source control and development.
- Continuously look for optimisation opportunities for the EDP.
- Ensure the Data Engineering team processes are followed, adhered to and continually reviewed.
- Ensure the Data Engineering team delivers according to schedule and in alignment with best practices.
- Recruitment and on boarding of new staff for the Data Engineering team (including contractors).
- Foster and manage relationships with Group Data and AI support vendors and other teams within FH Group IT.
- Mentor, support and grow skillsets within the Data Engineering team.
- Any other projects and analysis that may be required.

What we need from you:
To be successful in this role we are looking for a person with several of the following skills and knowledge:

- Organised, with a strong ability to prioritise and manage workload under pressure to meet deadlines in a fast paced and busy role with competing priorities.
- Proven experience managing Data Engineers and management of Data and Analytics projects.
- Technical leadership on Data and Analytics and/or data warehousing projects.
- Hold a relevant Microsoft certification (Desirable).
- Minimum 10+ years of work experience on the Microsoft Data and Analytics stack.
- Minimum 5+ years of work experience around SSAS Tabular development.
- Proven experience working with Microsoft Data and Analytics development tools and Power BI.
- Proven experience working Azure or cloud-based platforms.
- Strong analytical, critical thinking and proven development skills.
- Excellent communication (both verbal and written) - with the ability to manage up, down and across the organisation.

Preference is for this role to be based at Head Office in Christchurch or in Auckland. However, given the team is spread geographically, for the right person with the right skills we will consider other appropriate locations but note this will require more business travel as required.

Fulton Hogan Philosophy

Here at Fulton Hogan, we don't just talk about our REAL Values, we live them too. Our people are the most important part of our business and we're always looking for people who are passionate about the work they do. If that's you, we'd like to invite you to become part of our family and join us in our commitment to ensuring the Good Work we do will make a positive difference to the quality of life for our people, our customers and the communities we all call home.
