What they need


We’re looking for an experienced Drainlayer to join our Tauranga team, working across a range of Civil and Drainage projects in the Bay of Plenty.

This role suits someone who takes pride in delivering quality work, can lead by example on site and understands the importance of safety, compliance and getting the job done right. At CB Civil, we don’t overcomplicate things, we back good people, expect high standards and work hard to deliver quality outcomes.

Your Key Impact

In this role, you’ll play a key part in delivering three waters and deep drainage works across our Bay of Plenty projects. You’ll use your experience to lead a small drainage crew and ensure work is completed safely, accurately and to specification.

What you’ll be doing

  • Installing sewer, stormwater and water reticulation pipelines across a range of deep drainage environments
  • Reading drawings, setting out pipelines from survey pegs and using pipe lasers, laser levels and dumpy levels
  • Working hands-on in the trench, including laying pipes, checking levels, backfilling, compaction and testing
  • Installing concrete, PE and PVC pipelines, along with concrete manholes from set-out through to completion
  • Leading a small drainage crew and ensuring work meets safety, environmental, quality and compliance requirements

What you’ll bring

Key requirements:

  • Registered Drainlayer (or ability to gain certification through the PGDB)
  • Proven experience across three waters, including sewer, stormwater drainage and water reticulation
  • Strong deep drainage experience, including trench shields, dewatering and benching
  • Ability to independently read drawings
  • Hands-on experience installing pipelines and concrete manholes
  • A practical, self-starting approach with the ability to lead a crew of three to four people
  • Full NZ Class 1 Driver Licence

Preferred:

  • Certified Drainlayer
  • Class 2 Drivers Licence
  • WTR Endorsements

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • Competitive wage and benefits
  • $1,000 Extraordinary Health & Wellness Benefit
  • Training and development opportunities
  • Career progression and development support
  • Flat management structure – you’re more than a number
  • A strong team environment with good people and good culture
