This is a unique opportunity to continue your professional career, whilst living in one the world’s most spectacular outdoor destinations.

You’ll get a great salary package but there’s more to a rewarding job than that. This is a rare opportunity for a professional services job in Queenstown.

We’ll help with some of the smaller things too – like fun social events with your colleagues, and company health and well-being initiatives such as our Spring Challenge. Fancy learning basic Te Reo or upskilling around Te Tiriti o Waitangi? We give you access and time to grow personally as well as professionally. Queenstown is an incredibly appealing place to work and play, and we encourage our team to have a balance of both.
Our people deliver great projects – it’s what we’ve done for over 35 years. In short, you’ll work on interesting projects, you’ll feel valued and backed, and the doors are open to promotion.
