Our client has a track record in New Zealand second to none. They are a leading international multi-disciplined consultancy whose people manage award-winning and innovative projects in many countries around the world. These projects allow their staff to gain exposure to a wide range of clients and develop specialisations within their chosen discipline. The offices provide a fantastic physical environment and their commitment to developing their staff is second to none.

An excellent opportunity has become available for an Intermediate Geotechnical Engineer. As a key member of the team, you will be involved with technical design on a range of projects including motorways, urban highway upgrades, railway infrastructure, premium buildings, new school developments and assistance to regional offices including highway slip repair, retaining wall design and pavement design. You will be required to mentor staff and manage projects to ensure revenue and other business plan performance requirements are achieved.

We are seeking an Engineer with an enthusiastic and motivated attitude who has been exposed to a broad range of projects and wants to take the next step in their career. You will be an excellent communicator who is capable of contributing to the delivery of projects and documentation as well as building strong relationships with clients, other internal disciplines and with your team members. You will be developing a specialism within the geotechnical design field and be capable of rapidly gaining credibility.

You will need to be ambitious and motivated as huge development opportunities will be provided, and as such the responsibilities of the role will be tailored to provide a challenging environment no matter what previous experience you have. As an enlightened employer they allow their key staff to make decisions and sometimes mistakes - this empowering environment allows individuals to develop to their full potential as quickly as practical – so be prepared to get your hands dirty and make a difference.

The above person description describes our perfect applicant; however, we are realistic in our search for our new Intermediate Geotechnical Engineer. We are experienced with recruiting staff from other international locations and will be prepared to assist with relocation where appropriate. Although there is significant local legislation with which to become familiar, we know this will take some time to master. As an employer we are accredited with New Zealand Immigration which, assuming that you pass your medical and can prove you are of good character, will ensure that your application for VISA is fast tracked.
