About the client:
At Lynx Recruitment, we work with some of New Zealand’s most forward-thinking organisations to connect them with great people. Right now, we’re on the lookout for an experienced Project Manager with strong exposure in the vertical building space to join a thriving consultancy team based in Tauranga.
Our client has a people first environment where collaboration is key. While they believe in flexibility when it’s needed, the culture is office-first, because stronger relationships, faster learning, and shared energy all come from being together!
About the role:
This role is all about taking ownership of projects and delivering results. You’ll be leading from the front, working closely with clients, managing day-to-day requirements, and guiding teams through design, procurement, and contract management phases.
It’s a chance to be part of a team that’s passionate about optimising projects across multiple sectors, including Education, Health, Transport, and Infrastructure. You’ll be hands-on, visible, and central to making sure projects not only run smoothly, but also leave a positive mark on the communities they serve.
Responsibilities:
- Take charge of projects from start to finish, from design and procurement right through to delivery on site.
- Run project meetings with confidence, keeping everyone in the loop and things moving smoothly.
- Keep an eye on budgets, timelines, risks, and quality so nothing slips through the cracks.
- Work with contracts (NZS3910/3916) and make sure compliance is on point.
- Build great relationships with clients and support your team to deliver results you’re proud of!
What you’ll need to bring to the table: - You’ve got 5+ years of experience in New Zealand’s building space (vertical or horizontal) and know how projects are run here.
- You’re confident managing projects end-to-end, stepping up independently but also happy to work with senior oversight when needed.
- You’re a strong communicator, written, verbal, and face-to-face, and can adapt your style to suit different people and situations.
- You’re comfortable running meetings, keeping risks in check, and making sure projects keep moving in the right direction.
- You bring a problem solving mindset, knowledge of NZS3910/3916 contracts, and a collaborative approach with the drive to keep growing your career.
Perks you’ll love: 5 weeks’ annual leave, 4% KiwiSaver, an annual retreat, $200 wellness benefit, EAP support, and plenty of professional development to keep your career growing! Applicants must have the right to work in New Zealand.
If you’re an experienced Project Manager who’s ready to make your mark on high-profile building projects in Tauranga, we’d love to hear from you.
