  • Coordinating consultants, subcontractors and stakeholders
  • Monitoring project delivery, quality and project outcomes
  • Supporting the successful delivery of multiple construction projects
What We're Looking For
  • 3-6 years' Quantity Surveying experience within the New Zealand construction sector
  • Experience working on commercial construction projects
  • Strong commercial acumen and attention to detail
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • A proactive attitude and willingness to take ownership
  • An interest in developing Project Management skills and responsibilities
  • Relevant tertiary qualification preferred
What's on Offer
  • Salary package of $90,000 - $115,000 depending on experience
  • Genuine career development and mentoring
  • Exposure to both commercial and project delivery functions
  • Long-term career progression opportunities
  • Supportive and professional team environment
  • Wellington-based role commencing August / September 2026
