Job description

Overview

Auckland, New Plymouth, or Christchurch

Are you an Engineer who thrives on turning bold ideas into reality? Do you enjoy leading complex projects from blueprint to handover — and seeing the results of your work transform operations?

We're looking for a driven Engineer with project management expertise to deliver multi-million-dollar CAPEX initiatives and continuous improvement projects across our regional sites. This is your chance to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our operations while working on projects that truly make an impact.

Why this role matters

You'll be at the heart of our growth and innovation, driving projects that enhance performance, reduce risk, and extend asset lifecycles. From managing contractors and budgets to integrating new plant and equipment seamlessly into operations, you'll lead projects that deliver real, measurable results.

What you'll do

  • Own projects from concept through to commissioning and handover
  • Manage the safe execution of CAPEX projects to industry-leading standards
  • Lead cross-functional teams and external contractors to deliver on time, within budget, and to scope
  • Develop execution plans, RFPs, budgets, cash flows, and schedules
  • Negotiate and manage contractor performance and pricing
  • Design and deliver mechanical improvements and plant modifications
  • Embed consistent project management frameworks and transparent stakeholder communication

What you'll bring

  • Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical or similar)
  • 3-5 years\' experience supporting and / or leading development projects
  • Strong project leadership skills and a proven record of delivery
  • Proficiency in MS Project and MS Office Suite
  • Competence in CAD and 3D modelling
  • Experience in mechanical design, development, and costings
  • Familiarity with construction methods and building codes
  • What success looks like

  • Safe, compliant project delivery with zero harm as the priority
  • Projects completed on time, within budget, and to technical specifications
  • Seamless integration into operations, with engaged and aligned stakeholders
  • Consistent project management processes that build confidence and trust
  • This isn't just another engineering role. It's an opportunity to make your mark by leading major projects that shape the future of our operations across New Zealand. You'll enjoy variety, challenge, and the satisfaction of seeing your projects deliver tangible improvements.

    If you're ready to elevate your engineering career and thrive in a role where no two projects are the same — we'd love to hear from you.
