At Connetics, we're a multi-disciplined, multi-regional electrical design, construction, and maintenance business. We develop and maintain electrical infrastructure assets for energy customers, including the third-largest electricity distribution network in Aotearoa.

What we do matters. Our solutions start at the intersection of community, creativity, and client relationships. We exceed our customers' current and future needs, lead in sustainability, and deliver innovative future energy services.

**About the Role**

- Confidence to contribute ideas and drive improvement

This is a full-time role (40 hours/week), with flexibility when the job demands it. In Wellington, our crews are only on-call during major events (e.g. storm response), so your weekends are typically yours.

- Recognition programmes including in-the-moment recognition, and awards for teams and individuals
