Ready for your next challenge in civil construction prior to Christmas? We're seeking an experienced Civil Supervisor or Foreperson to join a Wellington-based team. While experience with gravel extraction, rock placement and working around rivers would be beneficial, the key requirement is proven site supervision within a civil environment.

Key Responsibilities:
- Coordinate and lead site crews, providing day-to-day direction to ensure construction activities are delivered safely, efficiently and in accordance with project specifications.
- Promote a positive site culture by mentoring team members, supporting their development and encouraging high performance across the team.
- Oversee plant and machinery operations, ensuring equipment is maintained, pre-start inspections are completed and defects are promptly reported.
- Maintain accurate site records and progress reporting, while identifying hazards, reporting incidents and near misses, and contributing to continuous improvement initiatives.
Experience:
- Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to motivate crews, build positive site culture and keep projects running smoothly.
- Proven experience supervising civil construction projects, ideally with exposure to earthworks, gravel extraction, rock placement or river-based works.
- A solid understanding of health and safety requirements, environmental controls and quality management practices.
- A hands-on, practical approach with the fitness and resilience to work outdoors in a range of weather conditions.
- Full legal rights to work in Current Zealand.
