Are you a Coastal Engineer looking for a change, This is a strategic invitation to join a high-performing, NZ-owned company as our founding Coastal lead.

In a post-2023 storm environment, Auckland’s coastal landscape is changing. With the notification of PC120, the intersection of housing intensification and coastal hazard management has become one of the most complex challenges in the industry. We are looking for a heavy-weight expert to own this space—someone who wants to move away from the corporate grind and into a role where their expertise directly shapes the built and natural environment of Aotearoa.

• Direct Influence: You won't just be a technical reviewer; you will be the architect of our coastal division. You define the standards, choose the tech stack, and set the technical direction.
• Mastery of PC120: We are positioning ourselves as the "go-to" for navigating the new Plan Change 120 requirements. You will lead the charge in helping clients understand the immediate legal effects on coastal erosion and inundation hazard areas.

• Regulatory Expertise: A deep, working knowledge of the Auckland Unitary Plan, the NZCPS, and specifically the implications of PC120 on coastal erosion and inundation overlays.
• Technical Breadth: Proficiency in coastal modeling (DHI/MIKE, SWAN, etc.) and a practical understanding of seawall, revetment, and nature-based solution design.
• The Credentials: CPEng status is essential. You should be comfortable providing high-level technical sign-offs and peer reviews.
• The Startup Mindset: You are a "player-coach"—someone who loves the deep technical work but is equally excited by the challenge of building a brand and a team.

• Stormwater Management
• Catchment Planning
• Design
• Flood Assessments
• Green Infrastructure

• Salary:  A competitive salary, negotiated to reflect experience and impact.
