Summary: Seeking an experienced, highly driven, detail-oriented, and safety-focused Site Manager to strengthen a capable team on diverse commercial projects. Highlights: 1. Work with a tight-knit, capable team delivering diverse commercial projects. 2. Opportunity to join a company with a strong pipeline and positive outlook. 3. Collaborate in a supportive environment guided by clear and simple philosophies. A bit about Aoraki… We’re a tight knit team, doing big things! Aoraki have made a serious impact on the Wellington construction landscape over the last 6 years delivering some pretty cool new buildings in our city. Our projects have included multi-storey entirely new buildings, seismic strengthening and refurbishments, local and central government including schools, heritage buildings, apartments, hotel, industrial buildings and fit out work. We’re quite different as a Main Contractor because we can deliver small projects right up to the big $50M+ large scale projects – and there are very few in the Wellington market who have this capability. Aoraki have built up an incredibly capable team, who are super proud of the $200M+ in projects we’ve delivered across the city over the last 7 years. Looking forward, we’ve got a very strong and positive outlook ahead, so have space for an exceptional and like-minded Site Manager to join the Aoraki crew. Our ‘Golden Rules’ that were set out from day#1 have served us very well: (1) keep it simple & effective – no complicated bureaucracy, no unnecessary overheads, quick decision making; (2) stay in Wellington & work with good people – this is the region we know & love; (3) run a carefully chosen & highly experienced team, have some fun along the way, and give the team our trust to do their jobs; (4) keep everyone close to the action on-site; (5) be grateful, respectful and remember where we started and why we’re doing this – respect our Mana Whenua, our subcontractors, designers and clients who we’ve had support from and who we rely on. What does a great Aoraki Site Manager look like? We’re looking for an exerienced (5yrs+) Site Manager to join the Aoraki team in delivering a strong pipeline of diverse commercial projects in the Wellington Region.

Your technical skills and experience will include: *5yrs + commercial site management experience for a main contractor with a track record of medium to high complexity projects in the $5M to $50M range in the Wellington region. *A very strong understanding of and ability to read plans & specifications, and work to budgets for both labour and materials. *A solid understanding of commercial construction, from foundations through to fit out. *Experience with Procore (or similar) and tech-savvy. *A practical trade or academic qualification is preferred.
