You will have a keen interest in RMA planning, and most importantly, have a willingness to work collaboratively to deliver outstanding projects. You’ll also bring a great attitude with you, and will like to have a laugh because although we take our commitment to the business and the environment seriously, we still like to have a lot of fun along the way.
Site visits could be anywhere across New Zealand so, a willingness to travel is preferred in this role as we’re a national planning consultancy and our site visits may be off the beaten track.

Demonstrated experience in local government and private sector development projects is definitely preferred. Previous experience with working with telecommunications and infrastructure resource consents would be advantageous, as would previous consultancy experience, but it’s not essential.
