Piling Rig Operator

The down-sides of being just a number with a large Civils company is that you're probably going to continue to do what you're doing for a long time to come and no one’s that interested in your career.
For real variety in your job and where you're going to be a valued part of the team, able to walk into the head honcho's office at any time; this is a medium sized Tier 2 Civils Company who are quietly getting on with some spectacular construction of foundations, retaining structures, diaphragm walls especially on huge infrastructure projects including the City Rail Link project.
There’s the added benefit to your career of international connections and these guys import the latest construction technology and innovations to the New Zealand market with a whole range of first-to-the-industry on their track record.
If you are a competent Piling & Drilling Rig operator and love nothing better than putting those piles in the ground with excellent accuracy and production rates, this is an opportunity to work on high volume sites. You’ll also be positioned to build (or learn how to build), diaphragm walls, Barrettes, Slurry Walls and other deep underground structures, ground improvement and technical foundations.
This role will have real variety – and could have you working on a subdivision doing retaining structures one day to beside a motorway the next; building a bridge, a large basement for a commercial sites or – working on New Zealand’s first Underground Rail systems. Your skills will definitely be stretched and expanded and you’ll learn from the international best.
Everybody is on first name terms in this company and your personal performance will be seen and noticed so that you will progress through the company's structure that is built to develop star performers - not lock you into a rigid pay grades with no room to progress until your supervisor moves on or dies!
