Job description

Are you a general operative with experience in earthworks, drainage and large pipe trenching?

Pipeline & Civil is a leading constructor of pipeline and related infrastructure in NZ. Since we were formed in 1993, we’ve gained a solid reputation as an industry leader, constructing high quality assets and working on challenging projects.

An employee owned, values based company, we put our people first. Due to our continued success and growth we are now looking for a motivated and experienced general operative to join our team.

As a general operative you will report to the Site Supervisor. Depending on the project, you may be involved in earthworks, pipe laying or building construction, and as such your daily activities could vary from month to month.

You will be expected to have a high regard for the health and safety of yourself and others, ensuring that you do things the right way and take the necessary steps to stay safe. You will also ensure that you do a quality job and that nothing you do has a significant negative impact on the environment.

As a general operative, you are learning in the industry and will make an effort to ask questions and follow instructions well. You will seek out knowledge from more experienced members of the team and be prepared to support them with the tasks they are undertaking.

We offer an exciting and stimulating work environment, with a strong emphasis on the health, safety and wellbeing of our team.

Focused on employee growth and development, we offer career progression along with a competitive salary package. This includes a range of employee benefits including bonuses, medical checks, birthday perks, merch, paid functions and medical insurance (after a qualifying period).

Applicants must be prepared to undergo pre-employment health, drug and alcohol testing, criminal conviction history checks, and be a NZ Resident or hold a current NZ work visa.

You must have a full drivers license and be willing to work across the Auckland region.
