About The Role

Are you a Site Manager who takes pride in running a tight site, leading from the front, and delivering commercial builds you can stand behind? We're working with a well-established regional construction brand to find their next on-site leader.

The Company

Our client is one of NZ's most respected construction names, with a 50+ year track record and a strong, growing presence across the country. They've built their reputation on quality delivery, genuine community roots, and looking after their people, who'll tell you it's a down-to-earth, supportive place to build a career.

The Opportunity

This is a hands-on leadership role based in Tauranga where you'll own the day-to-day delivery of commercial projects from start to finish. You'll be the key on-site representative, driving programme, coordinating trades, keeping quality and safety standards high, and keeping clients and stakeholders in the loop. If you thrive on solving problems, motivating crews, and seeing a project come together the right way, this is your patch.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Run site operations end-to-end: safety, programme, budget and quality
  • Coordinate subcontractors, suppliers, plant and labour to keep projects moving
  • Stay ahead of issues – spot risks early and deal with them before they bite
  • Champion health and safety, including site inspections and hazard management
  • Keep quality assurance on point and workmanship up to spec
  • Build solid relationships with clients, consultants and subcontractors
  • Keep documentation and reporting tidy – daily logs, progress updates, variations
  • Support budget control by finding smarter, more efficient ways to work
  • Lead, coach and get the best out of your site team

What You'll Bring

  • 5+ years in construction site management, ideally commercial
  • A proven track record leading projects and site teams from start to finish
  • Strong grasp of commercial construction methods, sequencing and QA
  • Experience juggling multiple subcontractors and workstreams on live sites
  • Solid knowledge of NZ health and safety requirements
  • Confident with construction management software and reporting tools
  • Sharp communication and stakeholder skills
  • A full NZ driver's licence
  • A trade background or construction-related qualification is a bonus, but experience and attitude matter most

What's On Offer

  • $140,000 - $160,000y, based on experience
  • Vehicle, phone and tools of the trade
  • Genuine career development – mentoring, leadership pathways and ongoing growth
  • A supportive, high-performing team culture with social and community initiatives
  • Wellbeing support – wellness programme, flu jabs, health and skin checks
  • The chance to lead meaningful, locally based projects that shape your community
