Site Manager

About The Role

Are you a Site Manager who takes pride in running a tight site, leading from the front, and delivering commercial builds you can stand behind? We're working with a well-established regional construction brand to find their next on-site leader.

The Company

Our client is one of NZ's most respected construction names, with a 50+ year track record and a strong, growing presence across the country. They've built their reputation on quality delivery, genuine community roots, and looking after their people, who'll tell you it's a down-to-earth, supportive place to build a career.

The Opportunity

This is a hands-on leadership role based in Tauranga where you'll own the day-to-day delivery of commercial projects from start to finish. You'll be the key on-site representative, driving programme, coordinating trades, keeping quality and safety standards high, and keeping clients and stakeholders in the loop. If you thrive on solving problems, motivating crews, and seeing a project come together the right way, this is your patch.

• Support budget control by finding smarter, more efficient ways to work
• Lead, coach and get the best out of your site team

What You'll Bring

• 5+ years in construction site management, ideally commercial
• A proven track record leading projects and site teams from start to finish
• Strong grasp of commercial construction methods, sequencing and QA
• Experience juggling multiple subcontractors and workstreams on live sites
• Solid knowledge of NZ health and safety requirements
• Confident with construction management software and reporting tools
• Sharp communication and stakeholder skills
• A full NZ driver's licence
• A trade background or construction-related qualification is a bonus, but experience and attitude matter most

What's On Offer

• $140,000 - $160,000y, based on experience
• Vehicle, phone and tools of the trade
• Genuine career development - mentoring, leadership pathways and ongoing growth
• A supportive, high-performing team culture with social and community initiatives
• Wellbeing support - wellness programme, flu jabs, health and skin checks
• The chance to lead meaningful, locally based projects that shape your community
