Job Role: Technician
Job Type: Permanent / Full Time
Location: Tasman
Category: Trades & Services
Sub-Category: Technician
Description:
Why This Role Stands Out:
- Competitive pay that reflects your real experience
- Overtime rates for when you go the extra mile
- Birthday leave – because your time matters
- Ongoing training and opportunities to grow your skillset
- Strong team support, without being micromanaged
- A stable, well-established company that’s going places
About the Company:
You’ll be joining a highly respected, family-owned New Zealand business with over 25 years of success in the commercial automated door industry.
Known for doing things properly, looking after their people, and building long-term client relationships, this is a company where good technicians stay.
With continued growth across the top of the South Island, they’re now looking for someone who knows their craft and wants to be part of something solid.
The Role:
This is a hands-on, field-based role where no two days are the same.
You’ll be trusted to manage your own jobs across Nelson and the wider Tasman and Marlborough region — solving problems, delivering quality work, and building strong client relationships along the way.
What you’ll be doing:
Diagnosing, servicing, and repairing automated door systems
- Installing and maintaining mechanical and electrical components
- Fault-finding and problem-solving in real time
- Communicating directly with clients and providing practical solutions
- Managing your workflow independently while staying connected to the team
Who This Role Is Perfect For:
This is not an entry-level position. This suits someone experienced, capable, and ready to take ownership.
You’ll likely have:
- Several years in a mechanical, electrical, or service-based trade
- Strong fault-finding ability (electrical experience is a big plus)
- An electrical licence (or working towards one) – highly advantageous
- The ability to work independently and think on your feet
- Solid knowledge of Nelson City and the Tasman / Marlborough regions
- A professional, reliable, and customer-focused approach
- A flexible, professional approach to travel, overtime, and on-call work (including after-hours and weekends as required)
- Full NZ Class 1 driver licence
The Lifestyle:
Live and work in one of New Zealand’s most sought-after regions. This role offers the balance – solid, consistent work without sacrificing your lifestyle.
