industrial automation and robotics recruitment new zealand

new zealand's industrial automation sector is technically demanding and consistently short of experienced local talent


a thriving. long-standing oem presence and a strong community of regional systems integrators drive ongoing demand for engineers, project professionals and commercial leaders — and the domestic talent pool regularly requires supplementing from offshore


liftpass serves both sides of the tasman. our new zealand recruitment capability has proven over many years to give employers a single specialist partner and provide new zealand-based professionals with access to one of the region's most connected automation networks

new zealand's automation industry

auckland is the centre of new zealand's automation industry. the city hosts the new zealand operations of international oems, alongside established specialist domestic and international integrators . across new zealand, regional integrators serve manufacturing, food processing and logistics clients across both the north and south islands


new zealand's automation market is characterised by close relationships and a smaller professional community. reputation and referral matter significantly


liftpass operates in this environment with the same values  — long-term relationships, genuine sector knowledge, and a commitment to doing the work properly

roles we place across new zealand

across new zealand's oem and integrator community, liftpass places professionals across the complete 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 managers

•  engineering and operations leadership

relocation and international pathways

new zealand's automation employers frequently need to look beyond the domestic talent pool. liftpass offers two international pathways that are genuinely useful in the nz market:


returning new zealanders — experienced professionals, often working in australia or the UK ,who are considering a move home. liftpass has relationships across this community and actively monitors those who are open to returning when the right role appears


pre-vetted international candidates seeking long-term relocation — professionals who want to build a life in new zealand, not extract an expatriate salary from it. we work with employers to ensure visa sponsorship and relocation support are positioned correctly to attract the right calibre of candidate

for new zealand employers, liftpass offers domestic search drawing on our anz-wide network, and international search when the local market can't deliver. for new zealand-based professionals, we provide access to local roles, australian opportunities for those open to moving, and confidential career support for those considering their next step
