  • Focus on new areas of aligned business opportunities and develop relationships with 1st tier civil construction companies, resulting in rural subcontracts.
  • Ensure projects are completed on time, to specification, and of a high quality.
  • Complete accurate job estimates and quotes, within agreed timeframes, and maintain regular invoicing, including retentions and variation claims, in consultation with the Office Manager.

 

What you’ll bring:

  • A management background in civil earthworks, across farms, lifestyle blocks, residential properties, sub divisions and rural roading.
  • A good local knowledge of Silverdale to north Auckland.
  • A natural leadership style resulting in the development of effective relationships.
  • Task orientated and results focused.
  • Skilled in quoting, invoicing, retentions and claims.
  • An inquisitive mind, assessing new, aligned opportunities.

Want to be paid what you’re worth, + work vehicle + tools of trade? Don’t wait to think about it, or it will be gone.
