At Connell, you’re part of the team, part of the family. We’re a people-first business that backs our people with a supportive environment, structured career development and clear growth pathways across our civil construction operations in Waikato, Taranaki and Auckland and beyond.
We invest in our people for the long term. Our people reap the benefits of genuine support, training and mentoring they need to help grow with us. Our focus is on long-term employment, keeping our staff happy, and helping them building genuine careers that progress over time.
If you’re looking for more than just a job, Connell offers the chance to build a career with real momentum. You’ll benefit from a varied workday, a close-knit team environment and ongoing development, all underpinned by our commitment to zero harm and workplace safety.
The work we do genuinely matters. From pipelines and trenchless rehabilitation to electrical, renewables and civil structures, our team helps deliver New Zealand’s infrastructure of tomorrow. So when you join Connell, you contribute to projects with real purpose and long-term impact.
Our staff say they love the projects we get involved in for their technical complexity, opportunities to show up and contribute meaningfully, and chances to succeed and grow. Whether it’s solar farms that’ll help power the future, trenchworks in Auckland’s tight urban streets, laying siteworks to help provide energy resilience to isolated communities or something else, we’re tackling the big jobs that’ll keep you interested.
We can’t expect the right results without giving our people the right tools to do the job. That’s why, at Connell we believe in investing in the right training for our people.
We facilitate staff growth and development wherever we can, including personal mentorship, providing opportunities on-site for staff to step up and show their expertise and capabilities, and fostering great local talent from local communities.
As part of the Connell team, you’ll be supported, mentored and challenged to develop in your role with us. Our team are passionate when it comes to sharing our industry knowledge and expertise – and with more than four decades of experience, we’ve got more than enough to share.
If you’re looking to join a company where your career success is as important as the success of the projects we work on, then look to work for Connell.
The opportunities within Connell cover the full civil construction spectrum, from apprentices to qualified foremen, supervisors, and engineers. At Connell we understand that the responsibility for developing the next generation of civil contractors sits with us, and we pride ourselves on being able to help deliver.
