Mechanical Engineer - Water

Mechanical Engineer – Water Team (Auckland)

At Mott MacDonald NZ, we’re more than an engineering, management, and development consultancy — we’re a purpose-driven collective of thinkers, doers, and change-makers. As a wholly independent, employee-owned company, we empower our people to lead with integrity, collaborate with heart, and innovate with impact.

Your opportunity to thrive

We’re looking for a Mechanical Engineer with 1–3 years of experience and a passion for project delivery to join our Auckland Water team. This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to meaningful water and wastewater infrastructure projects that serve communities and protect the environment.

In this role, you’ll support the design and delivery of a wide range of projects — from large municipal treatment plants to commercial and industrial systems. You’ll work alongside experienced engineers and technical leaders, contributing to concept and detailed design development, and assisting in the preparation of specifications, drawings, and schedules.

You’ll also have the opportunity to :

• Learn from and collaborate with global specialists
• Build strong client relationships
• Contribute to multidisciplinary project teams
• Grow your technical and project coordination skills
• Be supported in your professional development journey

You’ve got this.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

We put equality, diversity and inclusion at the heart of our business, seeking to promote fair employment procedures and practices to ensure equal opportunities for all.
