Site Supervisor - Civil | Lead with Mana

placeWellington calendar_month 

We’re looking for a Site Supervisor who can lead with mana and deliver civil projects to a high standard. If you have experience in drainage, roading, earthworks, retaining, piling, or civil services — and you’re ready to take charge of your sites — this is your opportunity.

This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll run day-to-day operations, support your crews, and keep projects moving safely and efficiently. You’ll work closely with the Project Manager, provide real-time updates from the ground, and ensure work is delivered to spec, on time, and with pride.

We’re growing and need strong leaders who can maintain momentum, uphold quality, and bring a solutions-focused mindset to every challenge. In return, you’ll join a company that values its people, rewards performance, and makes sure you go home safe and proud of your work.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Leading crews and subcontractors to deliver high-quality civil works
  • Managing drainage, earthworks, utilities, pavement, and general civil activities
  • Maintaining efficient workflow, productivity, and a strong standard of workmanship to support programme delivery
  • Coordinating labour, plant, materials, subcontractors, suppliers, and daily workflow
  • Identifying issues early and solving problems before they impact progress
  • Reading and interpreting plans, RLs, and technical civil drawings
  • Driving a strong HSEQ culture on site, ensuring SSSP implementation, safe work practices, and environmental compliance
What You’ll Bring
  • 5+ years’ civil construction experience, including 2–3 years in a supervisory role
  • Strong knowledge of drainage, earthworks, and civil construction methods
  • Ability to interpret plans, levels, and technical drawings
  • Experience with set-out and level checking (advantageous)
  • Understanding of gravity and pressure systems
  • Firm but fair leadership style — able to motivate diverse crews
  • Strong communication skills and a solutions-focused mindset
  • Full Class 1 licence (Class 2, WTR, STMS, First Aid, Site Safe/Construct Safe a bonus)
