Aluminium Joinery Leading Installer

About Us

We are a family-owned aluminium joinery business specialising in the supply and installation of residential and commercial joinery. We take pride in delivering high-quality, bespoke joinery solutions. This newly created role is central to our next chapter.

The Role

This is a key leadership hire for our business. As the leading installer, you will own the on-site installation operation end-to-end — planning, leading, and delivering joinery installation projects to a consistently high standard, without requiring day-to-day oversight from the business owner.

This role is ideal for an experienced installer who is ready to step into a leadership position, take real ownership, and grow with a business.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan and manage all on-site installation work from handover to completion
• Lead and direct the installation crew on site, ensuring productivity and quality at all times
• Make sound technical decisions on site without needing to escalate to the business owner
• Ensure jobs are completed on time, within scope, and to the standard our clients expect
• Be the primary point of contact on site for clients, builders, and other trades

• Work closely with the office to understand upcoming jobs and resource requirements
• Brief crew members clearly before and during each job
• Identify potential issues early and communicate proactively to avoid delays
• Manage the practical logistics of getting the right people and materials to the right place

• Uphold our quality standards on every job — take pride in the finished product
• Ensure all work complies with relevant New Zealand building codes and standards
• Champion a safe working environment and enforce safe work practices at all times
• Complete site documentation, job sign-offs, and any required H&S records

• Set the tone on site — lead by example in work ethic, attitude, and professionalism
• Support the development of less experienced crew members on site
• Work collaboratively with the factory team and office to ensure smooth handovers

What We're Looking For

• Proven hands-on experience in aluminium joinery installation — residential and/or commercial
• Demonstrated ability to read and interpret plans and specifications
• Previous experience leading or supervising a crew on site
• Strong technical problem-solving ability — you find solutions, not problems
• Solid understanding of NZ building standards relevant to joinery installation
• Current full NZ driver's licence

• Takes ownership — you treat the job as if it were your own business
• Clear communicator with clients, crew, and office staff
• Organised and forward-thinking — you plan ahead rather than react
• Calm under pressure with a practical, solutions-focused mindset
• High personal standards — you won't walk away from a job unless it's right
• A team player who contributes positively to a small, close-knit business

• A key leadership role with genuine career progression
• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• Stable, full-time employment in a business with a strong pipeline of work
• A supportive, family-run environment where your contribution is recognised
• The opportunity to grow into a more senior operational role as the business scales
