Operations Manager / Senior Supervisor – Water Infrastructure

Wellington | Full-Time | Permanent | Immediate Start

Two exciting opportunities to help build our Wellington operations

Pure Water Systems New Zealand is expanding its specialist water infrastructure maintenance operations throughout the Wellington region.

Following our recent involvement in drinking-water reservoir cleaning, rehabilitation and associated infrastructure maintenance projects, we are looking to appoint experienced professionals to support our continued growth.

We are particularly interested in speaking with candidates who have previously worked across Wellington's water infrastructure network, including drinking-water reservoirs, civil construction, asset maintenance and associated engineering services.

We are recruiting for two levels of experience:

Operations Manager – Wellington

An experienced operational leader capable of managing projects, developing client relationships, coordinating resources and subcontractors, and taking responsibility for the ongoing growth and delivery of our Wellington operations.

Senior Supervisor – Water Infrastructure

A practical, hands-on supervisor experienced in managing site activities, leading field crews, coordinating plant and equipment, and ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently and to the highest standards.

We welcome applications from candidates with a minimum of four years' relevant industry experience, particularly those familiar with Wellington Water / Tiaki Wai infrastructure and operational requirements.

Both positions offer competitive remuneration, immediate commencement opportunities and the chance to become part of a growing New Zealand-owned specialist infrastructure business.

How to Apply

If you have the skills, experience and ambition to contribute to a growing New Zealand-owned water infrastructure business, we'd love to hear from you.
