General Labourer for Drainlaying Wanted In New Zealand

Here is an opportunity for a keen individual to join a drainlaying team as a General Labourer or Trainee. This role would suit someone with a little labouring experience, but we are also open to entry-level applicants including school leavers who are keen to get into the Drainlaying and Civil industry. You will learn all aspects of laying pipe, with the potential to move into a drainlayer or operator role in the future. The hourly rate ranges from $20 to $28, based on experience, with a guaranteed minimum of 40 hours per week. If you are physically fit, not afraid of hard work, and ready to learn, we want to hear from you.

Who We Are

We are a dedicated drainlaying and civil construction team operating across South Auckland, Waikato, and North Auckland. Our work is hands-on, challenging, and rewarding. We take pride in training our team members and helping them build careers in the industry. When you join us, you become part of a supportive team that values punctuality, a strong work ethic, and a willingness to learn.

What You Will Be Doing

  • You will assist the drainlaying team with a variety of tasks, including driving the tractor and mixing concrete.
  • You will learn the basics of laying pipe and gain hands-on experience in all aspects of drainlaying.
  • You will perform plenty of manual labour, so be prepared for physical work and getting dirty—especially in winter, when you’ll leave most days wet or muddy.
  • You will follow instructions from experienced drainlayers and work well in a team environment.
  • You will travel to worksites across South Auckland, Waikato, and North Auckland as projects require.
  • You will maintain a drug-free workplace and adhere to all safety protocols.

What We Are Looking For

  • You have a driver’s license and your own reliable car to get to and from sites.
  • You are punctual and have a good work attendance record.
  • You can follow instructions and work well in a team.
  • You are a quick learner with good initiative.
  • You are physically fit and not afraid of hard work.
  • You have a strong work ethic.
  • You are drug-free and committed to maintaining a safe workplace.
  • You have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa.
  • Some labouring experience is helpful, but we are also open to training the right entry-level candidate.

What We Offer

  • Competitive hourly rate of $20 to $28, based on your knowledge and experience.
  • Guaranteed minimum of 40 hours per week.
  • All PPE supplied by the company.
  • Hands-on training in all aspects of drainlaying.
  • The potential to move into a drainlayer or operator role in the future.
  • A supportive team environment where your growth is encouraged.
