What they need
A well-established civil contractor needs an experienced Project Manager to step into a live commercial/industrial development project in West Auckland and drive it through the next phase.
This isn’t a role for someone to simply keep things ticking over. They need someone confident, decisive and experienced enough to take ownership from day one.
About the company
You’ll be joining an established civil contractor delivering commercial and industrial projects across Auckland. The team is practical, experienced and focused on getting the job done properly.
About the role
You’ll take control of a live civil excavation and siteworks package on a commercial/industrial development.
There’s no drainage component. The focus is excavation, earthworks, site coordination, programme and delivery.
The contract is expected to run for around 2 months, working approximately 30 hours per week, with an immediate start available.
Whats on offer

What you will need

Most importantly, you’ll be someone who can walk onto site, quickly understand where things are at and take control.
