Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand Babbage Consultants Limited Full time

Looking for your first step into the world of building surveying? Want to work on real projects, learn from industry experts, and grow your career in a supportive environment?

At Babbage Consultants, we're more than just a consultancy – we're a team of problem-solvers, innovators, and collaborators shaping the future of New Zealand's built environment. We're an RICS-regulated firm, and we're on the hunt for a motivated Graduate Building Surveyor ready to jump in and make an impact.

What You'll Do

No two days will be the same. As a Graduate Building Surveyor, you'll get stuck into:

  • Hands-on building surveys, inspections, and defect diagnostics.
  • Writing clear, professional reports that make a difference.
  • Supporting senior surveyors with contract administration and on-site monitoring.
  • Assist in specification and design of remedial and refurbishment projects on some of Auckland's most iconic buildings.
  • Working alongside authorities to understand how statutory approvals happen in practice.
  • Getting involved in asset and building maintenance management.
  • Contributing to proposals and tenders that bring new opportunities to the team.
  • Collaborating with engineers, architects, and remediation specialists on real-world projects.

What We're Looking For

We're not expecting you to know everything – we'll teach you. What we do want is:

  • A tertiary qualification Building Surveying, ideally with papers in Building Science.
  • Enthusiasm to grow your skills and work towards RICS or NZIBS membership (we'll back you all the way).
  • Curiosity to learn about New Zealand Building Codes, Standards & practices.
  • Great communication skills – verbal and written.
  • A positive, proactive attitude – someone who's keen to take initiative and learn fast.

What You'll Get

  • Career growth from day one – real responsibility, real projects, real impact.
  • Mentorship & support – learn directly from senior professionals across multiple disciplines.
  • Pathway to professional registration (RICS/NZIBS) with structured guidance.
  • A friendly, collaborative team culture where your ideas are valued.
  • Exposure to a variety of projects – from defect diagnostics to expert witness support.

Why Babbage?

Joining Babbage means more than just a job – it's the start of your career journey. You'll be part of a company that invests in your development, challenges you with exciting projects, and gives you the tools to become a future leader in building surveying.

Looking to start your career or build on a few years of industry experience in building surveying? This could be the role for you.
