About the Role
With a new branch opening and an internal promotion creating opportunity, we’re recruiting a Civil Site Engineer to join a highly capable and ambitious delivery team.

  • 2+ years' experience in civil construction/infrastructure

  • Proven site leadership—earthworks, in-situ or precast concrete, cable trenching

  • Comfortable reading plans, managing crews, and liaising with engineers

  • Strong commitment to H&S and a hands-on, lead-by-example style

  • Willingness to travel or work away when required

  • Positive, motivated, and a natural communicator

About the company:

This is a well-established award winning mid-sized civil contractor with a strong track record delivering complex projects across NZ’s infrastructure sector. Their civil division is key to major energy, pipeline, and foundation works—and they’re known for developing leaders from within.

This role offers career growth, exposure to critical projects, and the chance to work with a forward-thinking team doing meaningful work across the country.
