The Opportunities

We are seeking a full-time Surveyor to join our team based from our Waihi office. We welcome applications from both Civil Surveyors and Mining Surveyors, particularly those interested in broadening their experience across different sectors.  This is a varied role, offering opportunities to work on both civil construction and mining projects throughout the Waikato, Bay of Plenty, and Coromandel regions. Whether your background is primarily in civil construction and you're interested in gaining mining experience, or you're a mining surveyor looking to expand your exposure to civil projects, we'd like to hear from you.  Our New Zealand team is involved in a wide range of projects across the country. Alongside traditional surveying services, we're Part 102 certified and utilise UAV photogrammetry, LiDAR, bathymetric surveying, and 3D laser scanning to deliver innovative surveying solutions. 

With a diverse project portfolio, modern technology, and opportunities to develop skills across multiple disciplines, this is a role where no two days are the same.

In this role, you will work Monday to Friday on a variety of construction sites using advanced surveying technology and industry best practices. If you're on a mining role, you are likely to work an 8 on 6 off roster.

More specifically, your responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Conducting construction surveys to establish, monitor, and verify spatial data
• Ensuring accurate alignment and placement of infrastructure
• Utilising cutting-edge technology to perform high-precision measurements
• Interpreting and analysing construction plans and specifications
• Collaborating with project teams to provide spatial data insights
• Identifying and resolving survey discrepancies and technical challenges
• Travelling to project sites as required to support operations
• Supporting recent graduates and undergraduates in developing technical skills

• Strong technical proficiency in surveying methodologies and emerging industry technologies
• Excellent problem-solving, communication, and time management skills
• A proactive approach to innovation and continuous learning
• Experience with AutoCad, 12d Synergy and Model, DHI Terra and Modify, Infinity and TBC software

As our ideal candidate, you will possess a keen eye for detail, strong analytical thinking, and a commitment to accuracy—ensuring that every project you work on meets the highest standards. You will also be an effective communicator and team player, able to collaborate seamlessly with project stakeholders while anticipating and solving challenges before they arise.
