Job Description
Nau mai, haere mai ki a Fulton Hogan Join us at Fulton Hogan
We’re looking for (Civil) Laboratory Technicians to join our team in Silverdale. You’ll test the materials that keep our roads and infrastructure safe and performing well – from aggregates and asphalt to binders and road materials – helping our crews deliver Good Work across Tāmaki Makaurau.
Mō te tūranga About the role
This role splits your time between the lab and the field. Some days you’ll be out on-site collecting samples and running field tests; other days you’ll be in the lab putting materials through their paces and making sense of the results. You’ll be part of a friendly, straight‑up team that looks after quality control testing for major construction projects. It is technical work, but you won’t be left to figure it out alone – if you bring transferable skills and the right attitude, we’ll back you with full on‑the‑job training. We work side by side, not top down, and you’ll see the impact of your work out on real projects – not just on a spreadsheet.
Ngā tino kawenga mahi Key role responsibilities
Carry out quality control testing of aggregates, asphalt, binders and other road materials
Collect and prepare samples both in the field and in the laboratory
Enter, analyse and interpret test data to support decision making and keep quality standards high
Think beyond the how to the why – understanding what your results mean for safety and performance on site
Follow lab and site safety procedures and help keep work areas safe, tidy and well organised
Work closely with lab teammates, leaders and site crews to support project delivery
When the stakes are high, we switch on, pull together and deliver to a very high standard.
Kei te kimi mātou i tētahi e whai ana i ēnei pūkenga We’re looking for someone with
Ability to work both day and night shifts as required
Class 1 full driver’s licence (Class 2 is an advantage)
Qualifications in engineering, geotechnical or material science (a plus, but not essential – we’ll provide full role‑specific training for the right person)
Similar experience in asphalt or aggregate testing, or strong interest and knowledge of construction materials (preferred)
A strong health and safety mindset and good situational awareness, in the lab and on site
Clear written and verbal communication skills, and confidence working with different teams
If you’re after rigid hierarchies and a perfectly predictable day, we’re probably not for you. If you want to learn, be trusted with real responsibility and see the impact of your work out on the road, you’ll feel at home here.
He pai te mahi, he pai ngā painga Good work, good benefits
At Fulton Hogan, we genuinely care about the wellbeing of our people and giving them the tools and opportunities they need to succeed and grow with us. You’ll have access to:
Medical insurance and Life insurance after the eligibility period.
KiwiSaver employer contributions after service milestones, up to 7%.
Parental leave top up payment with additional return to work support.
Ongoing training and development, with clear career growth and progression opportunities.
Great discounts at a wide range of retailers.
