Job description

Are you ready to help shape the future of infrastructure in New Zealand?

Crown Infrastructure Delivery (CID) is seeking a proactive Project Controls Specialist to drive risk management and robust controls across high-impact government infrastructure and construction projects.

Who We Are

CID is a Crown-owned company delivering complex infrastructure and property projects across New Zealand. We work with government agencies to manage procurement, design and delivery, ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time, on budget and deliver lasting value.

At CID, you’ll join a collaborative, forward-thinking team committed to excellence. We offer flexible working, professional development and the chance to make a real impact.

About the Role

You’ll work closely with clients, Programme Delivery teams, and the Project Support Office (PSO) to :

  • Lead the development and maintenance of risk registers and mitigation strategies
  • Support project governance with accurate, timely reporting on risk exposure and project performance
  • Contribute to planning, scheduling, and resource forecasting to keep projects on track
  • Ensure project documentation and controls meet organisational standards.

What You’ll Bring

  • Strong background in risk management within complex projects or programmes
  • Experience with project controls tools and methodologies (e.g., scheduling, cost tracking, risk analysis)
  • Excellent communication skills to engage stakeholders and influence decision-making
  • Ability to translate complex risk and scheduling data into clear insights for stakeholders
  • Knowledge of project controls best practices and continuous improvement approaches.
  • Why join us?

    You’ll be part of a team that values proactive thinking, continuous improvement, and delivering projects that make a difference. If you’re passionate about risk management and project success, we’d love to hear from you.
