From classrooms to commercial spaces, we help shape the future of temporary and permanent environments across Aotearoa. We’re proud to operate with a focus on safety, quality, sustainability, and high performance – and we work hard to build not only great products, but great teams and careers too.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • A supportive environment where your input will be recognised and valued
  • Opportunities to develop new skills and contribute to continuous improvement
  • A friendly, hardworking team culture where everyone contributes and supports each other
  • Who We’re Looking For

    You’re an experienced production, workshop, or manufacturing leader who thrives in fast‑paced environments and enjoys bringing out the best in your team. You take pride in a well‑run site, high standards, and delivering on promises.

    You’ll Bring

  • At least 3 years’ experience in construction, manufacturing, or production
  • Proven experience supervising teams in a factory or workshop environment
  • Strong working knowledge of production processes, safety standards, and quality systems
  • Excellent organisational and time management skills
  • The ability to make sound decisions, solve problems, and keep operations on track
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills – confident working with people at all levels
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and production‑related systems
  • Ready to Step Up and Lead?

    If you’re ready to take ownership of factory operations, develop a high‑performing team, and contribute to delivering industry‑leading modular building solutions, we want to hear from you.
