Te whiwhinga mahi | The opportunity
In this Senior Associate EI&C Engineer role, you will strengthen and partner with Beca’s on-site team to manage our project delivery service offering with the New Zealand Steel, Glenbrook-based team. You will have plenty of scope to work with the Manager to grow and develop Beca’s specialist teams. Together, you will be part of a close-knit team delivering capital projects from scoping through to design, procurement, install/construction and commissioning. By working on site, you will see daily the impact from these projects and how they add value to the operation of one of NZ’s largest and most complex industrial sites.

You will be part of the New Zealand Steel Engineering Services team, supported by the depth of expertise and experience from the Beca Industrial business. You will work on a variety of projects across different plants around the site, varying in budget and complexity.

  • Execute capital projects in all stages, from design through to construction and commissioning

  • Participate in a mix of job delivery, project justification reports, work planning and financial management together with client relationship management

  • Provide client leadership and technical direction on a range of projects

  • Network, develop and grow relationships with clients and the Beca team within the industrial business

  • Tap into Beca’s technical specialist and multidisciplinary workforce, as well as apply your own expertise to develop the best solution for the client


Being based on site at NZ Steel in Glenbrook, South Auckland means you will be applying your relationship-building abilities and industry experience, working with site teams with deep knowledge and expertise on the operations across the site. You will connect, listen, understand, collaborate and deliver projects in a way that adds value to the onsite teams.

As part of the broader Beca Industrial business, you will be part of a team of over 200 engineers and industry experts passionate about the positive impact they have through the projects they deliver. Our employee-owned structure puts people at the heart of our decision-making.
