AWF are looking for keen and hard working digger operators to assist our busy clients who have a wide range of operating work. We have operating roles for everyone and to match the environment you want to be working including; earthworks, quarries, civil construction and roading.

We have some great clients who have the experience within their current teams to help more beginner operators grow their skills, so we're looking for people with high levels of skill and also people who may not have a heap of operating experience.

We are looking for people who can work well within a team as all of the operating work we have currently is within a team environment.

Our clients are industry leaders, they're proud of what they do and the results they produce. We need people who share this passion and who want to help build some of the great infrastructure that's underway throughout our great region.

By working through AWF you'll be entitled to all the normal things you would with any other employer including annual leave, competitive pay rates, Kiwisaver and ACC. But you'll also get all of your PPE provided and the support of our great Blenheim based team.

Here at AWF we hold safety in the highest regard, as do our clients, we need team members who are safety conscious so that everyone can go home safe and well at the end of a hard days work.

Our clients have a heap of work scheduled and whilst these are temporary roles they have the potential to go permanent for the right people. Although, if you're just looking for short term work or maybe something not so permanent we can most certainly help with this also.

What you need to apply

We have multiple roles available and we're looking for people with great attitudes that can work well within a team environment, our clients have some large and really exciting projects underway and through working as a team they can achieve all of the things they're setting out to complete.

You will need a minimum class 2 New Zealand Drivers Licence with W and T endorsements, if you have experience but no endorsements we may be able to assist you so please read on.

- The right to work in New Zealand and relevant documentation to prove it

- A Current CV with contactable references

- The ability to pass pre-employment checks including criminal history and drug and alcohol screening
