Manukau Institute of Technology Careers Directory Profiles

My favourite thing about my job is knowing I’m having a direct impact on the world around me.

I was able to gain a deeper understanding of certain functions of a project, such as planning, and how it ties into the overall project.

It is also cool how in a few years I still get the ability to be able to look back at the work I was part of and see how this helps the community. Moments like this give me a sense of reward and that all the hard work was worth it.

My day will usually start with some planning. I always like to have goals for my day in terms of what I want to achieve. 

Being responsible for a worksite has allowed me to gain confidence in dealing with challenging situations and given me insight into the roading sector.

Arup’s flexible working opportunities allow me to spread my working hours across the office and home to maintain a healthy work-life balance

Preparing for the Graduate Program for me started during my university time. I made sure that I had previous work experience in the engineering/construction industry while studying.
