RobLawMax Recruitment is proud to be partnering with MOVe Logistics to appoint a General Manager for its Specialist Lifting &amp; Transport division, comprising Tranzcarr Heavy Haulage and Machinery Movers. These are two well-established businesses with a strong reputation for delivering the complex and specialised projects that most transport companies cannot. From transporting transformers and wind turbine components to relocating heavy machinery and industrial equipment, their work supports key projects across New Zealand&#x27;s energy, infrastructure and industrial sectors. With annual revenue of approximately $20 million, around 50 staff, and a strong track record of profitability, the business is set up for continued success. As the long-serving General Manager steps away, an outstanding opportunity exists for a proven leader to build on this solid base, drive future growth and lead the next chapter for this respected specialist transport business. The role Reporting to the Group CEO and sitting on the Executive Leadership Team, you&#x27;ll be responsible for the strategy, people, performance and growth of the business. You&#x27;ll be supported by an experienced operational leadership team with deep industry knowledge and customer relationships. While you don&#x27;t need to be the technical expert in every aspect of heavy lifting or specialist transport, you will need to understand the business, make sound commercial decisions, and provide visible leadership that earns the trust and respect of both customers and the team. Key responsibilities include:<ul><li>Developing the strategy, business and operational plans to deliver financial targets.</li><li>Leading, developing and supporting the team across the operation.</li><li>Strengthening existing customer relationships while securing new projects to drive sustainable growth.</li><li>Providing oversight of major projects to ensure they are delivered safely, efficiently and profitably.</li><li>Planning investment in specialist fleet and equipment to support future requirements.</li><li>Working closely with the CEO and wider MOVe Group on strategy, reporting and business performance.</li><li>Championing a safety-first culture while fostering engagement, accountability and high performance across the division.</li></ul> About you We&#x27;re seeking a commercially astute and people-focused leader who combines strong business acumen with a practical understanding of operational environments. You&#x27;ll be equally comfortable talking to the team in the yard as you are discussing business performance with the CEO or meeting with major customers. Success in the role will require the ability to communicate effectively, build credibility quickly, and bring people with you as you lead the business. Ideally, you&#x27;ll bring:<ul><li>Senior management experience with responsibility for operational and financial performance.</li><li>Strong commercial capability, including P&amp;L management, business development and successful delivery of growth initiatives.</li><li>Experience leading operational teams in a complex, asset-intensive or project-based environment.</li><li>A sound understanding of health and safety, operational risk management and the importance of getting the job done properly.</li><li>The ability to balance strategic thinking with a practical, hands-on leadership style within a larger corporate group.</li></ul> Your background might be in heavy haulage, cranes, specialist transport, engineering services, industrial contracting or infrastructure. While direct experience in heavy lifting and transport would be an advantage, we are equally interested in leaders who bring commercial capability, operational leadership experience and a proven ability to grow and develop businesses. Why MOVe? Lead a highly regarded business in a specialist market where capability, reputation and relationships matter. With an experienced team and a loyal customer base, the platform for success is already in place. You&#x27;ll have the opportunity to build on a proven foundation, with room to bring fresh ideas, develop the team, and identify new initiatives to strengthen and expand the business. You&#x27;ll have the support of a wider NZX-listed group, direct access to the CEO and the opportunity to influence and shape where the division goes next.

RobLawMax Recruitment is partnering exclusively with Kea Aerospace on this appointment Help solve the thermal challenges of a solar-powered aircraft designed for long-duration operation in the stratosphere. Kea Aerospace is developing the Kea Atmos - a solar-powered, remotely piloted stratospheric aircraft designed to fly continuously for extended periods at approximately 20km altitude, delivering aerial intelligence for applications including maritime surveillance, environmental monitoring and disaster management. As development of the Kea Atmos progresses, Kea is looking for an experienced Senior Thermal Systems Engineer to lead thermal design, analysis, testing and optimisation across the aircraft. Operating in the stratosphere presents a particularly challenging thermal environment. Extremely low ambient temperatures are combined with very low atmospheric density, limiting conventional heat rejection while different aircraft systems operate across very different thermal conditions. This is an opportunity for an experienced thermal engineer to apply strong first-principles knowledge and modelling capability to a genuinely unusual engineering problem, and to see that work progress from analysis and design through physical testing and ultimately integration onto the aircraft. The Role Working as part of Kea&#x27;s multidisciplinary engineering team in Christchurch, you will take a leading role in developing and optimising thermal management solutions for the Kea Atmos. An initial area of focus will be the thermal performance of the aircraft&#x27;s powertrain and associated systems, working closely with battery, avionics and other engineering disciplines.

Your Background Previous aerospace experience is not essential. Kea is interested first and foremost in finding an engineer with genuine depth in thermal engineering, strong fundamentals and the ability to apply those skills to real-world engineering problems. Relevant experience could therefore have been developed within aerospace or space systems, but equally within areas such as: <ul><li>Automotive, EV or motorsport</li><li>Battery, powertrain or electronics thermal management</li><li>Defence and advanced technology</li><li>Nuclear, energy or power generation</li><li>Medical or scientific equipment</li><li>Advanced product development and other high-performance engineering environments</li></ul> Experience with high-altitude, low-pressure, space or other extreme environments would be advantageous. Additional breadth across areas such as multiphysics analysis, FEA, structural dynamics, aerodynamics, electrical systems, mechanical design, CAD, materials, manufacturing and DFM would also be valuable within Kea&#x27;s multidisciplinary engineering environment. Why Kea Aerospace? Kea offers the opportunity to work on a highly unusual engineering programme and to have genuine involvement across the full development lifecycle. The Kea Atmos is designed, developed, tested and built in Christchurch, allowing engineers to remain close to the physical product and see their work progress from modelling and analysis through to hardware, testing, integration and flight. As part of a growing and multidisciplinary team, there is also scope to contribute beyond a narrowly defined technical discipline and help shape engineering solutions as the aircraft continues to develop. Kea offers an employee share option plan, flexible working hours , and a working environment focused on combining ambitious engineering with a sustainable work&#x2F;life balance. You’ll be based in Kea’s newly opened Christchurch engineering and manufacturing facility , providing a modern environment in which to design, build and test the aircraft. Location The role is based at Kea Aerospace&#x27;s Christchurch facility . Given the specialist nature of the appointment, applications are welcomed from experienced thermal engineers based elsewhere in New Zealand or internationally who would consider relocating to Christchurch. Relocation support may be considered on a case-by-case basis. For security and safety reasons, police vetting will be undertaken prior to any employment offer. RobLawMax Recruitment is partnering exclusively with Kea Aerospace on this appointment. Please contact Peter Henderson on 027 441 9300 for more information or apply here.

Your responsibilities will include: <ul><li>Lead and coordinate multidisciplinary design, with a strong focus on process and mechanical systems</li><li>Review plant layouts, specifications, equipment designs, drawings and technical documentation</li><li>Ensure new processing equipment integrates effectively into the existing manufacturing facility</li><li>Manage technical interfaces and battery limits across contractors, OEMs and individual work packages</li><li>Identify design gaps, clashes and scope issues before they become problems during installation or commissioning</li><li>Ensure operability, maintainability, hygienic design and Safety in Design are properly considered</li><li>Provide technical support and direction across the wider project engineering team</li><li>Coordinate and participate in FAT and SAT activities</li><li>Develop commissioning strategy and readiness</li><li>Support installation, commissioning, start-up, ramp-up and operational handover</li></ul> This aligns with the formal position scope, which spans processing, packaging, automation, utilities and buildings, with particular responsibility for design assurance and managing interfaces between contractors and OEMs. <h2>About You</h2> We&#x27;re interested in experienced process, mechanical or project engineering professionals who have delivered complex capital projects within dairy, food &amp; beverage or other process manufacturing environments.Ideally, you&#x27;ll bring: <ul><li>Strong process&#x2F;mechanical engineering and capital project delivery experience</li><li>Experience coordinating multidisciplinary design and multiple project packages</li><li>A good understanding of process plant, pipework and utilities</li><li>Experience delivering brownfield projects within operating manufacturing environments</li><li>The ability to work effectively across contractors, OEMs, engineers and operational stakeholders</li><li>Exposure to installation, commissioning and start-up</li><li>Knowledge of hygienic design and food manufacturing environments would be highly regarded</li></ul> Dairy or food-processing experience would be ideal, but isn&#x27;t essential if you can demonstrate strong transferable experience from another complex process environment.We&#x27;re also more interested in the complexity and relevance of the projects you&#x27;ve delivered than simply their dollar value. Just as importantly, you&#x27;ll be someone who can step back from the day-to-day noise, see where the technical gaps and risks are, and bring a calm, structured and practical approach to solving problems. <h2>The Opportunity</h2> This is an 18-month fixed-term position based in Palmerston North , joining the programme at an important stage as major packages progress through design and procurement and into site delivery. You&#x27;ll have the opportunity to influence key technical decisions now and then see those decisions through installation, commissioning and start-up. A strong senior-level remuneration package is available, with flexibility for candidates bringing particularly relevant dairy, food-processing or major process-project experience. While the initial appointment is for 18 months, the organisation has an ongoing capital programme which may create further opportunities for the right person. Interested?

Kea Aerospace has partnered with RobLawMax Recruitment to appoint a Senior Power Electronics Engineer to its Christchurch-based team. Kea is developing the Kea Atmos, a solar-powered, remotely piloted stratospheric aircraft designed to remain airborne continuously for months at a time. Operating approximately 20 kilometres above the Earth, it will support maritime surveillance, environmental monitoring, disaster management and other applications. The Kea Atmos will be the largest unmanned aircraft built in the Southern Hemisphere. This newly created role offers the opportunity to own critical aircraft electronics and see your designs progress from initial concept through to flight. The opportunity You will take ownership of electronics development from establishing requirements and system architecture through to detailed design, board bring-up, verification and flight-test support. Rather than receiving a fully developed specification, you will work with the wider aircraft team to determine what is needed, make sound technical trade-offs and deliver robust, working hardware. Depending on your particular area of expertise, your responsibilities will include: <ul><li>Defining electronic system requirements, architecture and technical trade studies.</li><li>Leading the design and optimisation of power-conversion, distribution, monitoring and data-collection electronics.</li><li>Designing analogue circuits, schematics, magnetic components and PCB layouts.</li><li>Developing high-efficiency, lightweight electronic solutions suitable for an aircraft with limited available energy.</li><li>Modelling efficiency, mass, cost and performance to guide design decisions.</li><li>Building, testing and debugging prototypes, including investigating unexpected faults and unusual operating conditions.</li><li>Addressing EMI&#x2F;EMC, thermal performance, packaging, reliability and manufacturability.</li><li>Supporting environmental qualification, aircraft integration and flight testing.</li><li>Producing clear technical reports that explain findings and inform design decisions.</li><li>Collaborating with design, test and manufacturing colleagues to deliver flight-ready hardware.</li></ul> About you We are looking for a Senior Electronics Engineer with at least seven years’ hands-on experience and deep expertise in power electronics or a closely related electronics field. Power electronics is the preferred background. However, Kea is also open to experienced engineers from other domains, such as embedded hardware, where the overall technical fit is strong. You must be a confident communicator with strong spoken and written English. In particular, you will need to produce high-quality technical reports that clearly explain your findings and inform design choices. Depending on your background, your experience is likely to include several of the following: <ul><li>DC-DC switch-mode power supplies, converter topology selection and analogue control.</li><li>Analogue circuit design, electromagnetics, magnetic-component design or discrete logic.</li><li>Embedded hardware and complex PCB design.</li><li>Defining system requirements rather than relying on an existing specification.</li><li>System-level power architecture, budgeting and technical trade studies.</li><li>Designing, building, testing and fault-finding printed circuit boards.</li><li>Modelling, simulation, validation and structured system verification.</li><li>Schematic-capture and PCB-layout software. Kea uses Altium, although experience with comparable packages is transferable.</li><li>Understanding how PCB layout affects EMI&#x2F;EMC, thermal performance and manufacturability.</li><li>Taking electronic hardware from initial concept through to a tested working product.</li></ul> You will also need to be comfortable working autonomously within a small, agile engineering team where no one will necessarily tell you exactly what needs to be built or how to build it. Relevant backgrounds Aerospace or spacecraft experience would be advantageous but is not essential. Relevant experience may come from electric vehicles, battery systems, electric propulsion, aviation, defence, drones or other high-reliability and harsh-environment electronic systems. The key is your ability to apply strong fundamental knowledge to the unusual conditions encountered at stratospheric altitude, including extreme cold, very thin air and an increased risk of electrical arcing. Additional experience Experience in any of the following would be useful but is not essential: <ul><li>Lithium-ion battery systems or solar-array integration</li><li>Aerospace EMI&#x2F;EMC standards and FMEA&#x2F;FMECA</li><li>Environmental or qualification testing</li><li>Taking designs from prototype into production</li><li>Design for Manufacturability and Design for Testability</li><li>High-speed digital interfaces and structured engineering-change processes</li><li>Python or another high-level language for modelling, automation or testing</li><li>Mentoring engineers and contributing to wider technical development</li></ul> Why Kea Aerospace? <ul><li>Own critical aircraft electronics rather than one small part of an established product.</li><li>Work on technology unlike anything else being developed in this part of the world.</li><li>See your designs move rapidly from concept and bench testing to integration and flight.</li><li>Join a talented, mission-driven team where your decisions directly shape the aircraft.</li></ul> Kea is interested in both New Zealand-based and international candidates. Applications should clearly state your current New Zealand work status or whether immigration support would be required. For security and safety reasons, police vetting will be undertaken before an offer of employment is made. For a confidential discussion, contact Peter Henderson on 027 441 9300 at RobLawMax Recruitment, or apply with your CV and a brief summary of electronic hardware you have personally taken from design through to testing.
