Ready to lead major civil infrastructure projects valued at $50M–$100M while living in one of New Zealand’s most desirable coastal regions?

An outstanding opportunity exists for a proven Project Manager to take ownership of complex bridge and water infrastructure projects within a high-performing Tier 1 delivery environment.

This role offers genuine scale, strong leadership support, and the opportunity to deliver career-defining structures projects.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Lead large-scale bridges and water infrastructure projects ($50M–$100M)

• Attractive salary package $180K–$220K + vehicle + bonus

• Strong pipeline of secured civil infrastructure work

• High level of autonomy and project ownership

• Clear progression toward senior project leadership roles

• Join a results-driven, high-performance delivery culture

• Enjoy the Bay of Plenty lifestyle — beaches, boating, fishing, mountain biking

The Role

You will take full responsibility for end-to-end project delivery, driving programme performance, commercial outcomes, safety leadership, and stakeholder engagement across complex civil structures projects.

The current workload is heavily focused on bridges and water infrastructure, with future exposure to broader civil works as programme demands evolve.

What You’ll Bring

• Proven experience delivering civil infrastructure projects as Project Manager

• Strong background in bridge construction and water infrastructure

• Demonstrated capability managing projects in the $50M–$100M range

• Strong commercial capability across contracts, forecasting, procurement, and risk

• Ability to lead large multidisciplinary project teams

• Performance-driven leadership style with a focus on safe, quality delivery

Lifestyle + Career

This is a rare opportunity to combine Tier 1 project scale with a genuine coastal lifestyle.

Live and work in Tauranga — one of New Zealand’s fastest-growing regions offering major infrastructure investment, excellent schools, and outstanding outdoor lifestyle.
