Careers
Good people, on the ground.
We are a growing New Zealand civil contractor, always keen to hear from people who take pride in doing groundwork properly. If nothing is open the day you get in touch, we keep good details on file.
Culture
A small team where the work is real.
You deal directly with the people running the job. There is no layer of management between you and the decision, which means the standard is set on site and held there.
Because we are new and growing, there is room to take on responsibility and have a say in how a site runs. We care about a safe, tidy job and treating people straight, the same standard we hold ourselves to with clients.
Employee benefits
What we offer
Fair pay
Rates set against experience and tickets held, reviewed as you take on more.
Varied work
Local Wellington jobs and regional contracts around the country. We are straight about travel before you take a role.
Training and tickets
Support towards the tickets and endorsements the work needs.
Safe sites
Proper gear, maintained plant and a crew that looks out for each other.
Small team
Your name is known here. Good work gets noticed rather than absorbed.
Clear expectations
You know the programme, the standard and who is making the call.
Career development
Room to move up.
Groundwork is a trade you can build a career on. We back people who want to add tickets, take on a crew or move from the machine into running a site.
- Support towards machine tickets and endorsements
- Site safety and first aid training
- Pathway from labourer to leading hand to foreman
- Apprentice and trainee positions as the work allows
- Regular one-to-one reviews rather than an annual form
