Live and work in the small, beautiful outdoor adventure, thermal pools and spa tourist town of Hanmer Springs.  It's 130 kms north of the city of Christchurch in the South Island.   It is great place if you enjoy nature, the outdoors, biking, hiking, jet boating, bungy jumping, rafting etc.   and there is a good social scene too.  It's a great community for families too.

You will be helping a small building company.  You will be part of a small team doing a range of carpentry tasks in Hanmer Springs and throughout North Canterbury.  The work includes residential, commercial, maintenance, decks, repairs and renovations.  This is a permanent job, but consideration would be given to someone who can stay a minimum of SIX months, although longer or permanent is preferred.  Full-time 40 hours+ a week.  START MID-JANUARY 2027.

 You will need at least TWO years previous building experience, (an apprentice with 2 years experience would be considered), be physically fit, be a self-starter, with good spoken English, and be prepared to work hard.  You will need a driver's license which enables you to drive in NZ and a relevant visa which allows you to work in this country.

You will need a good knowledge of construction techniques, able to read and interpret building plans and specifications and be able to work independently.  You will be an adaptable, versatile all-rounder who is willing to turn their hand to most things.

We will assist you to get accommodation.    An excellent hourly rate negotiable depending on experience.
