Field Service Technician

Are you a hands-on technician with an electrical or engineering background and a fizz for solving problems? Do you want to be part of a growing division within a respected electrical and automation company, working directly with farmers at the heart of New Zealand's dairy industry? If so, this is the job for you.

What's in it for you?

• Opportunity to work with cutting-edge dairy technology in a rapidly growing division
• Supportive team environment with access to ongoing training and development
• A stable company with long-term industry partnerships and a strong reputation
• A role where your expertise directly impacts the productivity and success of local dairy farms
• Full time permanent position $35-$40 per hour wages + work vehicle

The Role:

After sustained demand and ongoing success in the industry, our long-term and trusted client is expanding their dairy automation/installation team. Every day offers something different, from installing systems and configuring drafting gates to troubleshooting pneumatic valves, electrical components, or network issues.

You'll work both independently and alongside a supportive technical team, providing installation, maintenance, breakdown support, and customer training for an established network of dairy clients. To be considered for this role we are looking for someone with an engineering background as well as electrical/wiring knowledge.

A large part of your success in this role comes from how you engage with farmers and stakeholders. You'll be the face of the company on-site and a trusted advisor when systems need maintenance or farms require technical upgrades.

What we are looking for:

• New Zealand recognised qualification in electrical, automation, engineering, or agricultural technology
• Minimum two years experience with dairy automation, agricultural systems, or technical field service
• Willingness to travel throughout Canterbury and participate in an on-call rotation
• Full New Zealand driver's license
• Great time management and customer service skills
