We build and maintain infrastructure that improves the quality of life across New Zealand and Australia. Everything, from roads and bridges, to energy, water, and communication.

We’re big and growing, but this will always be a family business with family centric values that are REAL; Respect, Energy & Effort, Attitude and Leadership - driving who we are and what we do. We know that we’re only ever as good as our people. That’s why we’re committed to hiring, developing, and retaining the best in the industry.

The Opportunity
We need an enthusiastic & driven Engineering Graduate to join the Fulton Hogan team in Invercargill.

In this role, you’ll see yourself responsible for supporting the operational delivery of a project or department, reporting to Site Engineers, Foreman, or Department Managers. Support tasks to learn the ropes, such as quality checks, site set-ups, subcontractor management, document control, safety, and suppliers.

On a day-to-day basis you’ll be responsible for undertaking support tasks to learn the ropes such as:

  • Quality checks
  • Site set-ups
  • Subcontractor management
  • Document control
  • Physical work with operational crews on site (i.e. machine operation)
  • Following general instructions set by your Manager or Supervisor
  • You’ll also contribute in any other duties that are reasonably requested of you

In addition to the above, Engineering Graduates are expected to:

  • Learn about Fulton Hogan, our customers, and our direction
  • Working collaboratively with other parts of business
  • Maximise the mutual learning
  • Actively identify new areas for learning, regularly creating, and taking advantage of learning opportunities
  • Use newly gained knowledge and skills on the job and learn through their application
  • Manage individual performance
  • Set high standards of performance for self and others
  • Assume responsibility and accountability for successfully completing assignments or tasks
  • Deliver objectives in line with the company’s direction
  • Demonstrate a commitment to work co-operatively within your team and manage your own performance alongside your team
  • Identify, develop, and lead improvement opportunities. Provide suggestions to management for improving delivery, customer service and internal processes
  • Ensure personal/professional development is in line with relevant professional bodies

What you’ll bring to the table
We’re looking for someone who is graduating this year in a relevant field, and of course is looking for a practical business environment to apply their academic learning and theory.

You'll also be great with people, self-motivated and must be ready to start to build your career.

Who we are
Here at Fulton Hogan, we don’t just talk about our REAL Values, we live them too. Our people are the most important part of our business, and we’re always looking for people who are passionate about the work they do. If that’s you, we’d like to invite you to become part of our family and join us in our commitment to ensuring the Good Work we do will make a positive difference to the quality of life for our people, our customers and the communities we all call home.

Sound like you?
