Job description
This nationwide consultancy is recognised for delivering high-quality project management services across New Zealand and for growing some of the industry’s top talent. With offices throughout the country and a strong pipeline of Ministry of Education work in Northland, they provide structured career pathways, mentoring from senior leaders, and opportunities to grow in a supportive environment.
Their culture is collaborative, down-to-earth, and ambitious. You’ll be surrounded by people who value learning, celebrate success, and are invested in your development. For someone looking to build a long-term career in consultancy, this is the ideal starting point.
The Role
As an Assistant Project Manager, you’ll join the Northland team and work closely under the Regional Lead and Senior Project Managers. With the main office in Whangārei and projects spread across both Whangārei and Kerikeri, the role can be based in either location.
You’ll gain exposure to the full project lifecycle, supporting with administration, project documentation, reporting and meeting minutes, while developing the skills to manage your own projects in the future. The majority of your work will be within the education sector, giving you the chance to work on meaningful projects that directly impact communities.
