Wellington Central, Wellington, New Zealand Trident Homes Whanganui Full time NZ$80,000 - NZ$120,000 per year

Construction Manager / Site Supervisor – $100K + Lifestyle Flexibility

Trident Homes Whanganui | Full-time or 4-day option | Company vehicle included

We're looking for an experienced and qualified builder to join the team at Trident Homes Whanganui in a hands-on Construction Manager role.

This is a unique opportunity — we're offering flexibility, great pay, and real support from an established local team.

What's on offer
  • Up to $100,000 per year (depending on hours and experience)
  • Flexible hours – choose full-time or a 4-day work week
  • Company van included
  • Support from a dedicated Construction Administrator (no endless paperwork)
  • Strong pipeline of local Trident Homes builds
  • Great team culture with long-term, loyal staff
About the role

You'll take the lead on-site across multiple residential builds — working closely with clients, trades, and our internal team to make sure every project runs smoothly and to Trident's high standards.

You'll handle client walk-throughs, oversee site quality, and make sure timelines are on track — while our construction admin team manages scheduling, paperwork, and systems behind the scenes.

You'll need
  • A current LBP (Licensed Building Practitioner) qualification
  • Strong leadership and communication skills
  • Solid understanding of residential construction and quality control
  • A proactive, down-to-earth approach and ability to build trust with clients and trades
  • A passion for delivering quality homes and a great experience for our clients

If you're a qualified builder ready to step off the tools — or you're already managing sites and want a better work-life balance — this is the role for you.

Join a business that's growing, values loyalty, and looks after its people.
