We aim to create moments of delight together in the heart of the home, sustainably enhancing the quality of people's lives, now and for future generations. This purpose is the very heart of why we exist, it's our reason for being here.

We are driven by our values of being trusted, sustainably minded, innovative, generous, and curious. As a team, we take a collaborative approach and have a working environment where all ideas are heard, evaluated, and tested against our leading goal - to be the world's most human centered appliance brand.

What this role is about

As a Chief Engineer you are responsible for developing and presenting clear and aligned project goals and direction within the Cooking team based in Dunedin.

A broad role crossing multiple business units, the key interactions are with the Chief Designers and Global Product Managers, and it is through this interaction you ensure a business-wide view is considered throughout the full development process.

You will facilitate and cleverly knit together the customer requirements and product development activities to ensure we roll out the right projects to the markets at the right time. Our people thrive in a hands-on environment where they can own the results of their input.

To achieve in this role the key deliverables of the Chief Engineer include:

- Deeply understanding and representing the view of the Customer.
- Translating design briefs into project design specifications, project objectives and timelines.
- Leading the definition, development, and implementation of product projects.
- Balancing project and product Customer Interest trade off decisions while maintaining a high-level focus.
- Achieving on time delivery of customer driven products through the effective co-ordination and integration of all internal and external interested parties.
- Coordinating all activities related to the projects across the business.

Who you are

Others describe you as agile, they'd probably say you're something of an entrepreneurial systems designer too. You love juggling multiple projects and you embrace, rather than shy away, from ambiguity. We are looking for a leader - ideally you have some leadership experience but for the right person who can demonstrate raw potential we are ready to be wowed by your developing capability in this area. You lead with influence, you listen and understand challenges, and then you lead and coach others towards successful outcomes.

As you will be tasked with leading projects through all stages of the development process within Product Development and across other functions of the business, you should demonstrate the ability to articulate a clear and consistent vision, convey project objectives and provide a high level of clarity about the project's direction throughout the development and implementation process.

This is a key role in our business, so we’d love to see your passion for Product Development and the voice of the customer. Finally, we encourage and value curiosity and want to see you bring innovation and practicality with an emphasis on outstanding results.

What we offer

You’ll be part of a team-based culture that offers benefits such as development opportunities, a challenging and supportive work environment, leading technology, work/life balance, competitive remuneration, superannuation scheme and buying privileges.

Dunedin offers a rewarding lifestyle second to none, so if you want to join a team that works to play hard and enjoy the lifestyle and amenities on offer in the Otago region and beyond, now might be the time to consider your move. Find out more:
