auckland's automation market
auckland's automation sector is anchored by the new zealand operations of global gem businesses including daifuku and alstef, alongside specialist local integrators including facteon and automate-x
automate-x in particular represents the calibre of specialist, new zealand-owned automation business that drives consistent and technically specific recruitment demand in the auckland market
beyond the major players, a network of regional integrators serves food processing, manufacturing, logistics and e-commerce clients across auckland and the broader north island. the result is a market that, while more fragmented than in many countries, is technically active and consistently in need of experienced professionals who can hit the ground running
ROLES WE PLACE IN AUCKLAND
across auckland's oem and integrator community, liftpass places professionals across the full automation project and commercial lifecycle:
• control systems and commissioning engineers
• mechanical and electrical design engineers
• project engineers and project managers
• service managers
• pre-sales and solution consultants
• business development and commercial leadership
sourcing talent beyond the local market
auckland's domestic automation talent pool is limited. the city has fewer graduates entering automation-specific disciplines than larger cities, and the professional community is smaller and more closely networked
when a senior engineer or experienced commissioning professional is required, they are rarely actively seeking a new role at the same time
liftpass addresses this through four channels: our deep and long-standing relationships with domestic candidates, our anz-wide network, which gives employers access to australian industry professionals open to relocating, our returning new zealanders pipeline which tracks nz-based professionals working abroad who are considering a move home - and our international search capability for visa-sponsored candidates seeking long-term relocation to new zealand
working with liftpass in auckland
for auckland employers, liftpass offers domestic search, trans-tasman search, and international search depending on the brief and the local market conditions
for auckland-based professionals, we provide access to local roles, australian opportunities where relevant, and confidential career support
