This is a permanent, full-time position based in Te Anau, with travel required to some of New Zealand's most beautiful spots, including Milford Sound, Rakiura, and Walter Peak.
In this role, you will be responsible for performing maintenance work in line with our Standard Operating Procedures and industry best practices, ensuring that all tasks are carried out safely and efficiently. You will also identify and rectify any defects or deficiencies in equipment to maintain operational standards. Additionally, you'll conduct independent engineering research to support various maintenance and project tasks, while also providing guidance and direction to Labourers and Apprentices to help them develop their skills.
