What they need
ALH is recruiting on behalf of one of Taranaki's leading boutique event hire businesses for an experienced Team Leader to join their close-knit team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys leading from the front, thrives in a hands-on environment, and takes pride in delivering exceptional events. From weddings and corporate functions to large-scale community events, no two days are the same.
About the Role
As the Team Leader, you'll oversee the day-to-day operations of the crew, ensuring equipment is prepared, transported and installed safely and efficiently. You'll be responsible for organising work, working together and supporting the team on-site, and maintaining high standards of customer service and presentation.
This is a physical, practical role suited to someone who enjoys working outdoors and isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves.
What We're Looking For
- Has previous leadership or supervisory experience.
- Is physically fit and enjoys hands-on work.
- Has excellent organisational and planning skills.
- Is a practical problem solver with a positive attitude.
- Has strong communication and people skills.
- Is reliable, resilient and takes ownership of their work.
- Can confidently use tools and equipment.
- Holds a Class 2 licence (preferred but training can be provided)
- Experience within the events, marquee hire, construction, logistics or equipment hire industries will be highly regarded.
What's on Offer
- Permanent, full-time opportunity.
- Competitive pay, depending on experience.
- Standard hours of 8am-5:00pm, with longer days during the busy event season when required and reduced hours over the colder winter months
- Opportunity for a winter break, overseas travel, or a winter alternative e.g. ski season
- A supportive, family-focused workplace where your contribution is genuinely valued.
- Paid lunch break
- Varied and rewarding work
The business experiences its busiest period from October through to May, making this a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced seasonal environment.
Pre-Employment Requirements
The successful applicant will be required to complete:
- Two satisfactory reference checks.
- Ministry of Justice check.
- Pre-employment drug test.
- Driver's licence check.
If you're looking for a long-term opportunity with a well-established local business and enjoy leading a team while working in a dynamic environment, we'd love to hear from you. Please apply online today or contact Brooke on 0212250498
