• Feed back accurate site information, photos, and observations to the BDM, PM, and extended team to support accurate pricing and proposals.
• Identify site-specific risks, access constraints, and installation considerations early in the sales/design process.
• Assist with take-off quantities (materials, cabling, mounting, etc.) for tender and pricing purposes.
• Verify drawings and specifications against real site conditions ahead of tender submission.
• Support the engineering and design team with practical, field-based input during the design phase.
• Assist Project Managers in upholding installation standards, safety, and quality across all North Island installs.
• Carry out site inspections and quality checks on installation works, flagging non-conformances.
• Support the PM in identifying and resolving reactive installation issues, proposing practical solutions on-site.
• Maintain accurate records of site visits, inspections, and works completed.

• A relevant EWRB (Electrical Workers Registration Board) license, with the ability to access and work at electrical distribution boards.
• Legal right to work in New Zealand.
• Full, unrestricted New Zealand driver's license.
• Willingness and ability to travel frequently in and around the North Island, including overnight stays as required.
• Strong working knowledge of electrical systems, solar PV components, and installation/safety standards.
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, schematics, and tender documentation.
• Physical fitness and ability to work at heights and in varied weather conditions.
• Strong problem-solving skills with sound judgement on-site.
• Excellent communication skills, confident liaising with PMs, BDMs, clients, and the wider team.

Benefits

• Competitive salary, based on experience.
• Company vehicle.
• Opportunities for professional growth and training.
• A supportive, forward-thinking team environment.
