We’re more than just a construction company. We’re a team built on trust, collaboration, and a passion for excellence.

  • Plan and run the internal audit programme; lead external certification and client audits
  • Drive nonconformance management, root-cause analysis and trend reporting across all divisions
  • Support project teams with Quality Management Plans, ITPs and QA records
  • Own document control across the management system
  • Report quality KPIs and prepare inputs for management review
  • Coach our people, from graduates to Contract Managers, on quality expectations

What we are looking for

  • 5+ years in quality management in civil construction or infrastructure
  • ISO 9001 Lead Auditor qualification, or working towards it
  • Hands-on knowledge of NZS 3910 contracts, ITPs and site QA
  • Experience running ISO-based systems across multiple sites or regions
  • The credibility to influence from the site office to the boardroom
