About Us
At Walter & Wild, we're proud to be one of New Zealand's leading food manufacturers, home to some of the country's most loved brands. As a Kiwi-owned business with big ambitions, we combine the scale to make a real impact with a down-to-earth, collaborative culture.
The Role
We're looking for a practical, hands-on Facilities & Compliance Lead who is just as comfortable picking up the tools and fixing a site issue as they are managing contractors, compliance documentation and Council requirements across our 4 Auckland sites in Mangere.
This is a varied role where no two days are the same. One day you could be coordinating contractors and managing building compliance requirements, the next you could be resolving site issues, carrying out maintenance work, supporting environmental compliance or liaising with Council, Watercare, suppliers and auditors.
You'll be the go-to person for facilities-related activity, ensuring our sites remain safe, compliant, well-maintained and operating smoothly while working closely with Operations, Engineering and Health & Safety.
This is a full time, on-site, permanent, salaried role working Monday to Friday (7am – 3:30pm) with the occasional weekend work when required.
