An opportunity has arisen with a well-regarded Tier 2 commercial contractor for an experienced Site Manager to lead the delivery of key commercial projects across Queenstown and the wider Otago region. This role offers the chance to work on quality builds while enjoying the lifestyle benefits that come with living in one of New Zealand’s most sought-after locations.
About the Role
As Commercial Site Manager, you will take full responsibility for day-to-day site operations, leading subcontractors and site teams to deliver projects safely, on programme, and to a high standard of quality. You will work closely with project managers, consultants, and clients, maintaining strong site discipline while fostering a collaborative and positive site culture.
What You’ll Bring
- Proven experience as a Site Manager delivering commercial projects for a main contractor
- Strong ability to lead site teams and subcontractors through all stages of construction
- Solid programme management skills with a practical, solutions-focused approach
- High standards around health & safety, quality, and site presentation
- Clear, confident communication with clients, consultants, and internal project teams
- Join a respected Tier 2 commercial contractor with a secure pipeline of local projects
- Long-term stability working on well-run commercial builds across Queenstown and Otago
- Competitive salary package with genuine career progression

This role suits a Site Manager looking to step away from large, corporate structures and into a business that values autonomy, strong relationships, and quality delivery. Combined with the lifestyle benefits of living in Otago — from skiing and hiking to lake and trail access — this is an opportunity to advance your career without sacrificing balance.
