Hamilton based — servicing NZ industry

We're after trade-qualified engineers who take pride in doing things right, enjoy variety, and want to be part of a high-performing team that keeps New Zealand industry moving.

The role

You'll be out on site and in the workshop, servicing and repairing rotating plant and critical equipment.

One day it might be a pump overhaul, the next a laser alignment or gearbox rebuild.

There's plenty of variety, plenty of challenge, and a solid team backing you.

Toolbox meeting over a coffee at the Hamilton workshop (or on site)

Heading out to jobs across Waikato, Auckland, BOP, Taranaki, and occasionally the South Island

New Zealand Trade Certificates in Mechanical, Fitting & Turning, Toolmaking, Diesel, Marine, Automotive, Aero, Heavy Electrical, or similar

A methodical and accurate approach — engineers who value quality over shortcuts

Solid mechanical knowledge and problem-solving skills

Enthusiasm and willingness to help clients and teammates alike

Pride in your workmanship — the kind where you stand back at the end of the job knowing it's spot-on

The chance to join a high-performing team — where high standards are the norm and every member is backed to succeed

A competitive package — pay that reflects your skill, plus benefits

An 80-hour fortnight, giving flexibility in how you manage your time
