Surveyor/Wingman

We are a small, busy surveying and land development crew based in Alexandra, with strong local roots, a solid pipeline of projects and exciting plans for the future.

We're looking for another good person to help tackle the work and shape what comes next. Not just a surveyor so much as a wingman (or woman) to navigate the next chapter with.

This is an opportunity for an experienced survey technician or surveyor who enjoys variety, being out and about, and gets a buzz from moving projects forward. The work spans fieldwork and cadastral surveying across Central Otago, engineering design, and navigating Council processes, all with the support of our existing senior team. You'll enjoy getting stuck in, solving problems and helping to keep projects moving. There’s also a clear path to project and client management for anyone with the right skillset and attitude.

The ideal person is a capable all-rounder, or someone keen to become one. While technical skills, qualifications and experience matter, we can help you build those so it’s mostly the right attitude and personality we’re looking for. In our small, tight-knit office it’s essential that you can bring a bit of banter, good chat and chill vibes. We need someone who is reliable, friendly, and easy to work alongside, someone who can be trusted to get things done, ask good questions, and have a laugh along the way.

If you are a surveyor or survey technician in Central Otago, or thinking about heading this way, get in touch. No formal application process needed at this stage, just send a message and let’s grab a coffee (or arrange a call) to have a proper chat about your aspirations and whether we’re a good fit to help make them happen.
