Careers with Waiotahi

We are family

It takes a special sort of person to be part of the Waiotahi team. You need to be tough but sensitive, down to earth but professional, strong but gentle, enjoy a laugh but know when it’s time to be serious. The result is a friendly, family-orientated working environment.

What our people have to say

I work with an awesome team that provides great banter and supports me in gaining my Certificate in Heavy Automotive Engineering.

Waiotahi is fully committed to helping me with my studies and to support my family. With no two days the same, I’m never bored

    I love how you can upskill at Waiotahi and move up the ladder.

    We have a great leadership team, including one of the original owners, Richard Claydon, who is still around today.

    It’s an honour to interact with the person who started it all.

    Ben Houia – Operations Manager

    As a third-generation member of my family working at Waiotahi, I find it satisfying to witness the transformation of a bare piece of land into a project that benefits our community.

    It’s incredibly rewarding to share my knowledge with the younger team members helping them advance in their careers.
