Combining deep local knowledge with broader trans-Tasman capability and access to a global network of engineering specialists, LDE helps clients deliver resilient, practical and future-focused outcomes across the transportation, water, power and renewables, ports and marine, resources, and industrial sectors.

You will be valued for your skills and experience and who you are as an individual. We work collaboratively and independently, and balance office time with field trips off the beaten track. We love what we do and have plenty of laughs along the way.

Working with Tauranga City Council requires Category 1 or 2 accreditation, and LDE is looking for an accredited geo-professional to resource that requirement in-house.

We have a diverse portfolio of forward work in the commercial, residential, coastal, central and local government sectors, both in Tauranga and across the North Island, and you will play an integral part in project delivery.

Seize every opportunity to sharpen your skills, expand your expertise, and be recognised for the impact you make.

About the role

You will undertake analysis and design for key projects, including those of a specialist nature and those requiring strong technical input. Senior reviews will make up part of your week, alongside proactive guidance to less experienced members of the team on improvements they could make. From time to time, construction monitoring and site observations will be needed.

The Tauranga team are hard-working, supportive and fun in equal measures. You will also be part of a national team with a varied workload: big, small, simple, complex and challenging.

There is also the option of taking the lead role in the technical management of the geotechnical team in Tauranga. If that is something you would like to explore, please say so in your application so we can build it into our assessment.

About you

You will be a TCC Category 1 or 2 Geo-Professional, technically proficient and experienced in working with New Zealand and Bay of Plenty soils. You will be self-motivated, ambitious and willing to mentor, lead and guide the geotechnical/geological business in New Zealand and beyond. Ideally, you will be prominent in the local market, able to drive business and continue building client relationships. You will thrive in a small team environment within a business with a rejuvenated and exciting pipeline and plan. You will get satisfaction from owning projects, clients and technical delivery end-to-end, with autonomy and the ability to positively influence outcomes.
