The opportunity | Te Whiwhinga mahi
As Principal Property Acquisition Manager, you will have a direct impact on the delivery of property solutions and the implementation of major infrastructure projects that will keep New Zealand moving, including some of the largest projects within the recently announced Roads of National Significance (RoNS).
The RoNS are vital state highway projects that will drive economic growth and productivity through faster, more efficient transport connections that reduce travel times and create a safer, more resilient roading network.
These projects, once complete, will stimulate economic growth by supporting new housing developments and enhancing export market links, ensuring people and freight can reach their destinations quickly and safely.
With a focus on innovative funding and delivery models, we're aiming to break ground within the next three years as part of a 10-year construction pipeline, transforming New Zealand's transport network and keeping the country moving.
You will be responsible for ensuring that property is acquired for the region's projects in line with the transport project budget and programme and that acquisition is completed in accordance with relevant guidelines and legislation.
You will help drive best practice in property acquisition to continuously improve the way we work and how we support the wider NZTA outcomes. You will also be a key contact for our external suppliers and manage the delivery of performance standards relating to your projects.
Strong collaboration skills and stakeholder management experience will be critical for you to be successful in this role.
If you are an experienced property professional and a team player, with innovative ideas, a 'can do' attitude, and strong collaboration skills, then we want to hear from you.
