About Woods

Woods provides a full suite of professional services across land development, building, health, institutional, energy, government and transport sectors, to name a few. We approach every project — large and small — with empathy for both the land and the people it serves, enabling us to deliver the best possible cultural, environmental and economic outcomes for the Kiwi communities we help create (and, of course, for our awesome clients).

Our project teams bring together professionals at all stages of their careers, offering meaningful consulting experience on some of New Zealand’s most transformational projects across both the public and private sectors.

We are currently seeking an Experienced Graduate Civil Engineer to join our growing Napier team.

About the role

You will be a passionate Civil Engineer with approximately two years’ professional experience. Ideally, you will have exposure to 12D; however, experience with any 3D design package is essential. You will bring strong report writing skills and, most importantly, a positive ‘can-do’ attitude and genuine enthusiasm for the civil engineering industry and your own professional development.

You will ideally bring:

• A tertiary qualification in Civil Engineering
• At least two years’ relevant professional experience (preferably within New Zealand)
• Exposure to the technical aspects of land development and/or civil infrastructure projects
• CAD capability (12D preferred but not essential)
• Contract administration experience (desirable but not required)
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• A good understanding of Territorial Authority standards and Codes of Practice
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

You’ll have the opportunity to shape your career in a way that suits you. We offer ongoing learning and development, exposure to diverse projects, and the chance to explore your interests while being supported by a highly experienced, multi-disciplinary team. With a wide range of projects underway, no two days are ever the same.

We know that the best ideas come from different perspectives. That’s why we value people from all walks of life, with all kinds of backgrounds and experiences. It’s this diversity that makes Woods such a great place to work, grow, and have fun along the way. Its work Simply Done Well.
