We bring strong Project and Contract Management of resources and coordination of all activities on Civil Construction sites across the Lower South Island. With mobile crushing plant operations and projects in roading construction, this is one organisation where no two days are the same! As we grow and expand, our forward workload is bright, so we are looking for a great new employee to join our Aggregates/Crushing crew in Central Otago/Southland as a Crusher Operator.



The Perks:

You will also at times have labouring duties such as handling and transporting materials, cleaning up worksites from debris and machinery, transporting goods to/from site, quality assurance and be the that extra pair of hands as and where needed.

If you are physically fit, mechanically minded, like to problem solve and enjoy spending your days outdoors, on your feet (or in machines), this could be the position for you.

About you:

Along with your positive attitude and your ability to commit to work and some travel away from home, we are also looking for:
  • A proven track record of operating a range of construction and/or mining/quarry machinery
  • Class 5 full New Zealand Drivers licence with WTR endorsements (or willing to get them)
