Wellington - Qualified Builder & Content Creator Wingman
I need a wingman (or woman)
Not just another builder — someone who can swing a hammer, write a script, jump in front of a camera and back me up when it counts. This hybrid role mixes practical building knowledge with content creation.
Someone sharp on the tools but even better behind the scenes.
Someone with charisma and confidence, but just as happy to take direction.
You’ll work alongside Josh (NZ//Builder + Your Place Builders) to turn technical stuff into everyday language, support both our media and construction projects, and step in as #2 when needed — whether that’s on site, writing scripts, wrangling spreadsheets, or featuring in videos.
What you’ll be doing:- Reading manuals and turning them into scripts or outlines for content
- Making sure we're technically correct but adding humour and clarity
- Occasionally featuring in videos or voice overs
- Helping run builds smoother — no task too big or small
- Stepping in on-site when needed — builds always come first
- Trade qualified (bonus points if you came through BCITO)
- Able to read manuals and write scripts (way better than Josh — not a high bar)
- Comfortable in front of and behind a camera
- Pride in doing things properly — details matter
- Can take direction, but also give ideas when it counts
- A sense of humour — because life and work aren’t always serious
- You’ll do more than just build — you’ll help shape content that reaches thousands
- You’ll be part of a team pushing building into a new space
- Variety every week: site work, scripts, content, spreadsheets, cameras — no two weeks look the same
- This isn’t a filler gig, it’s a chance to grow with us long term
