Supporting drainage, sump and infrastructure maintenance
Setting up and packing down equipment

Carrying out hands-on work on site
Working safely around roads, excavation areas, waste and potentially contaminated materials
Working as part of a crew and independently when required
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
A current Class 4 driver's licence
Experience operating heavy vehicles or specialist equipment
Hydro excavation, vacuum, drainage, civil or infrastructure experience is an advantage
Comfortable working with waste, wastewater and dirty or unpleasant materials
Physically fit and willing to get stuck in
Reliable, safety-focused and responsible
Good communication skills and a strong work ethic
Willingness to learn and cross-skill across different operations
WHY JOIN US?
PERMANENT, FULL-TIME WORK – Consistent work with an established Tauranga team
