Auckland City, New Zealand Heron Construction Full time

Heron Construction is a family-owned business with over 50 years successfully delivering marine construction projects around New Zealand. We operate a fleet of tugs and barges supporting construction and dredging activities at ports and marinas around NZ. Our projects range from the far north to the deep south so there is a busy workload for the fleet transporting material and supplying on water support to a wide variety of projects - so there is no such thing as a typical day or typical voyage.

We operate using a computerised maintenance management system/ Fleet Management system on each of our vessels and are committed to maintaining high standards of reliability, as well as flexibility and reputation within our industry.

If you are interested in joining our crew as a Deckhand, we’d like to hear from you. You’ll need to have some experience or knowledge of boat handling, not be afraid of hard work and not likely to experience motion sickness

Heron operates from a yard in Papakura but our fleet is at work both in and around Auckland and up and down both coasts so you’ll need to be mobile and able to stay away from home, generally for periods of less than one week.

We offer a competitive rate of pay with regular overtime available and paid at time and half, together with free health insurance. We are also prepared to invest in training you up as we believe our business will continue to experience growth in the New Zealand market.
