Intermediate Surveyor

Job description

This is a long-established Auckland multidisciplinary land development consultancy with a strong reputation earned over many decades of contribution to the city's growth. They bring together licensed cadastral surveyors, chartered engineers, and planning professionals under one roof, a genuinely integrated offering that's relatively rare in the local market.

This company operates out of Auckland central and across a wide range of residential and mixed-use land development projects, from boundary surveys and cross-lease conversions through to complex subdivisions and multi-lot unit title developments. Their work spans the full project lifecycle, and they have built strong, long-standing relationships with clients and councils.

The team is deliberately tight-knit. Directors are hands-on and actively involved in project delivery, and every team member has direct access to senior expertise. If you're after a firm where your work genuinely counts and you're not just a number, doing the same-same day in, day out, this is worth your attention. A genuine career opportunity!  

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU
  • Competitive remuneration, this company is happy to invest in the right person with the right attitude and potential, not just tick boxes on a CV.
  • Varied project exposure from day one. You'll work across cadastral surveys, residential and medium-density subdivisions, unit title developments, topographic surveys, and construction set-out.
  • Mentorship from experienced Licensed Cadastral Surveyors in an environment where learning is genuinely supported and career progression is real.
  • A tight-knit, collaborative team culture, approachable leadership, down to earth, no unnecessary hierarchy, and people who actually enjoy working together.
  • Access to the full project lifecycle within an integrated practice, not just surveying in isolation, but alongside planners and engineers on the same jobs.
  • Visibility and ownership, in this company, your contributions are seen and your professional development is a personal investment for the business.
NON-NEGOTIABLES
  • 1 to 5 years of hands-on experience in cadastral/engineering surveying.
  • Bachelor of Surveying, this is strongly preferred. 
  • Working knowledge of Landonline, including cadastral survey data preparation and the plan lodgement process.
  • Practical experience with 12d Model  
  • Hands-on experience operating GPS and total station equipment in the field.
  • NZ residency or a valid work visa 
DESIRABLES
The following aren't deal-breakers, but will strengthen your application:
  • Diploma in Surveying will be considered for candidates with strong academic results and a demonstrable track record of capability and initiative.
  • Exposure to section 223/224 documentation and council submission processes.
  • Familiarity with BricsCAD or AutoCAD for survey drafting.
  • Experience working on subdivision and unit title surveys.
  • Working knowledge of LINZ Rules for Cadastral Survey.
