Our Queenstown based team have strong personal and project connections in the community, and a depth of experience across a range of local projects including education, commercial and community facilities. We have delivered several cornerstone projects in the region, with exciting future project opportunities.

If you’re looking for a change this year and a great place to grow your career, we can help accelerate it with the support of an enthusiastic manager who will invest in your coaching and development. You’ll be part of a small local team with the backing of a much larger national business, where we put a strong emphasis on looking after our people and helping grow their careers.

As a PM, you’ll get your hands on a great range of project opportunities and the chance to work with multiple teams. Our local projects are varied and interesting – no two are ever the same. You’ll get to experience projects in different phases, managing everything from design to construction and getting a project to the finish line - that magic day when people walk into their new building or tamariki see their new school for the first time.

You Matter @ TBIG

You really do! We want you to enjoy your working day and the teams around you. We want to put opportunities in your way, not roadblocks, and we’ll show we trust and support your instincts to lead projects and collaborate.

You’ll get a great salary package but there’s more to a rewarding job than that. This is a rare opportunity for a professional services job in Queenstown. The big things include a longer-term chance at becoming one of our employee shareholders, our support of flexible working, and we will continue your professional journey with networking, industry memberships and training opportunities. We’ll help with some of the smaller things too – like fun social events with your colleagues, and company health and well-being initiatives such as our Spring Challenge. Fancy learning basic Te Reo or upskilling around Te Tiriti o Waitangi? We give you access and time to grow personally as well as professionally. Queenstown is an incredibly appealing place to work and play, and we encourage our team to have a balance of both.
