Quantity Surveyor | Build Your Legacy in RotoruaAre you a numbers-driven professional with a passion for the practical? Do you look at a set of blueprints and see not just lines, but the potential for a perfectly executed, profitable project?
If you’re a motivated individual ready to plant roots with a thriving, New Zealand-based company, we have the desk (and the ute) waiting for you. We are looking for an enthusiastic Quantity Surveyor to join our Rotorua team and help drive our continued growth in the specialist construction sector.
The Role: From Blueprint to Bottom LineThis isn't just about spreadsheets; it’s about strategy. You will be the commercial heartbeat of our projects, managing every contractual and cost element from the first tender to the final handshake.
Your key responsibilities will include:
  • Precision Pricing: Tendering and pricing directly from plans and site measures.
  • The Art of the Deal: Negotiating with grit and professionalism to secure new work.
  • Project Guardianship: Controlling all cost and contractual elements to ensure projects are delivered profitably and on time.
  • Relationship Building: Acting as the bridge between our staff, clients, and suppliers to maintain healthy, long-term partnerships.
What You’ll Bring to the TableWe value ambition and a "long-term career" mindset. The ideal candidate will have:
  • Experience: 1 to 2 years of proven success in a QS or Estimating role.
  • Education: A degree or diploma in Quantity Surveying (or currently working toward one).
  • Tech Savvy: Strong computer skills with a mastery of Excel.
  • Organization: The ability to juggle multiple project elements without missing a beat.
Bonus Points for Niche Knowledge: While not essential, we’d love to hear from you if you have experience in:
  • Specialist floor coatings, screeds, or concrete repair.
  • Membrane Tanking/Roofing: (Bentonite, Bitumen, Butynol, TPO, etc.).
  • Protective Coatings: Intumescent spray for steel/timber.
  • Plastering Systems: Familiarity with Sto or Resene Rockcote systems and exterior renders.
Why Join Us?Rotorua offers a lifestyle like no other, and we offer a career to match. We believe in rewarding hard work and potential.
  • Competitive Package: A salary that reflects your experience and drive.
  • Tools of the Trade: A company vehicle is included.
  • Growth: A clear pathway for career development within a stable, thriving Kiwi business.
Ready to Measure Up?If you are ready to take ownership of your career in a specialist field, we want to meet you. Join a team where your input is valued and your results are visible across the Bay of Plenty.
