  • Strong coordination and time management skills with the ability to juggle multiple priorities
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills
  • Solid understanding of construction methodology, materials, regulations, and safety requirements
  • A hands-on leadership style with a focus on quality, safety, and delivery
  • You must be located in New Zealand with New Zealand construction experience

Why join us?

We're a well-established family owned and operated construction company with over 50 years in the industry with a strong pipeline of work, a supportive team culture, and a commitment to delivering exceptional results for our clients.
