Site Engineer Geotec

Site Engineer - Geotech | Hands-On, Boots-On, Laser-Level Legend Wanted

Kia ora and happy Monday momentum, we’re levelling up (literally).

If you thrive on getting out from behind the desk, lining up lasers, running levels, solving problems on the fly, and actually being on-site rather than watching the action from a swivel chair… keep reading.

We’re partnering with a major national contractor with projects across Aotearoa (you’ll find their signs everywhere, but we’ll save the name-drop for the interview). They’re driving serious infrastructure in NZ and we’re searching for a Site Engineer with a geotechnical edge, someone who backs themselves, backs their work, and isn’t afraid to get a bit of dirt on the hi-vis.

About the role

This role puts you in the centre of critical civil and geotechnical works across New Zealand. You’ll be the person who knows the site inside out the levels, the lines, the earth, the risks, the workflow, the “that’s not going to sit right” moments.

Expect a balance of technical know-how, robust fieldwork, and practical decision‑making. No passengers here, you’ll be hands‑on from day one.

You’ll be doing things like :

• Setting out, running levels, and laser height surveys with precision
• Supporting geotech investigations, testing, and on‑site monitoring
• Working alongside project managers, forepersons and subcontractors to keep things moving
• Reading plans, marking lines, and ensuring design intent actually becomes reality
• Reporting on progress, site conditions, and quality outcomes
• Troubleshooting on the ground and providing practical, safe solutions
• Ensuring site compliance, safety, and documentation standards are met

You choose your path.

We can support you into a permanent role with massive career development, or, if lifestyle and flexibility matter, work through us and enjoy diverse projects, and the freedom to choose where you make your impact.

Either way, you’ll be backed by a national brand that prides itself on delivering the right people, at the right time, with zero nonsense and high integrity.
