About the Company

A civil contracting business with over 25 years of experience delivering drainage, earthworks, and infrastructure projects across Wellington.

  • Oversee budgets and monitor project costs.
  • Manage tendering and procurement processes.
  • Administer contracts, variations, and claims.
  • Certify progress payments and final accounts.
  • Provide strategic cost advice and risk analysis.

What We’re Looking For

  • Minimum 5+ years’ experience in civil projects.
  • Strong knowledge of NZS3910 and civil construction practices.
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills.
  • Ability to work independently and support a small team.
  • Why Join Us

  • Flexible hours to suit your lifestyle.
  • Wellington-based projects – no long travel.
  • Family-oriented culture with genuine work‑life balance.
  • Opportunity to influence and grow with a trusted local business.
  • Competitive salary and supportive environment.
  • If you are legally able to work in NZ and can start immediately, apply now and send us your CV today!
