Board Member Executive team · · Fully Remote

We’re a specialist New Zealand-owned professional services consultancy. We operate from Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch and deliver work throughout NZ and further afield including Canada, the USA, Brunei and Australia. Most of our clients do work for local or central government or are significant corporates. We are known for our technical work in transport planning, engineering and spatial technology fields. We are increasingly delivering our work with a technology first approach and embracing standardised services and data products. This includes product development both through SaaS and raw data supply formats. As part of this technology first approach, we are trading overseas and exporting our knowledge and solutions. This means we need strategic advice and understanding of this global marketplace, with an eye for productised services and potential acquisitions which align to our growth plans.
