  • Optimising detailing for efficiency, manufacturability, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Contributing to quality assurance checks prior to production.
  • Keeping detailed records and documentation throughout each project.

What You Bring

  • At least 5 years' experience in NZ frame & truss detailing.
  • Strong capability with Mitek 20/20 and/or Sapphire.
  • Thorough knowledge of NZ construction practices and regulations.
  • Confident in reading and interpreting architectural/structural plans.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and a meticulous eye for detail.
  • Ability to handle multiple jobs while maintaining high accuracy.

  • Background in a frame and truss manufacturing environment.
  • Familiarity with prefabrication and timber framing systems.

What's on Offer

  • Supportive team culture with a focus on continuous improvement.
  • Variety of interesting and challenging projects.
  • Company laptop and phone included.
