  • Work closely with senior leaders to set strategy, establish market positioning and support long-term growth.
  • Represent Egis with industry bodies, clients and key stakeholders, championing our transport capability.
  • Promote continuous improvement, innovation and best practice across teams and projects.

What do we need from you

  • Extensive experience in New Zealand’s transport sector (Highways and / or Rail).
  • Proven ability to build, grow and lead high-performing teams.
  • Strong network and stakeholder relationships within the NZ transport industry.
  • Demonstrated success in winning and delivering transport projects.
  • Strategic mindset with the ability to identify opportunities and shape market presence.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence to represent Egis at senior levels.
  • A collaborative, people-focused leader who can bring teams together across locations.
  • What's in it for you?
