We are looking for Mechanical Engineering students to be based in Wellington.

This role will sit in the Building Services business unit.  

What is Building Services at Aurecon? 

At Aurecon we bring a design led thinking approach to consider how people will live, work, and use the buildings we design. We focus on forming lasting relationships with clients who develop and maintain sustainable, complex buildings  

We provide multi-disciplinary specialisations in the buildings team encompassing an array of Engineers including Mechanical, Electrical, Structural, Hydraulic, Sustainability, Facades and Fire Protection Engineers. 

Mechanical Engineers work closely with clients and design teams to create economic, sustainable, and resilient building services solutions.  

Mechanical engineers in the Building Services team at Aurecon develop heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems for complex environments. 

We are proud that our mahi directly contributes to Aotearoa’s Built Environment. 

What are we looking for from you?  

Steps to success below!  

You'll be ready to make an impact. You will be studying towards a formal qualification and be in your 3rd year of study. You will need to have the ability to work on a full-time basis from November 2023 until February 2024. 

We'll need you to be studying towards this degree: Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) in Mechanical Engineering 

You would have studied or are studying the following subjects or areas of focus: 

  • Thermodynamics 
  • An interest in environmental sustainability design 

And you will bring: 

  • Passion for changing the way we deliver carbon neutrality and sustainability in everything we do. 
  • Ability to initiate and build relationships with both your peers and clients to push forward the boundaries of what is possible. 
  • Enthusiasm for re-imagining engineering and be someone that actively pursues continuous learning to help shape the future. 
  • Excitement about your journey with Aurecon.  

How will your future be shaped by us? 

We've been recognised for our innovation culture, gender equality and our LGBTI+ inclusion, including being the first engineering company in Aotearoa New Zealand to receive the Rainbow Tick. Our Māori Strategy - He Rautaki Māori, won two Good Design Awards in 2022 for its outstanding contributions in bringing He Rautaki Māori and digital innovation into operations and decision-making processes. Bring your whole self to work! 

Joining us as an intern gives you a snapshot of what we are about and opens up opportunities to come back as a graduate with us, meaning you’d have the opportunity to be part of an award-winning graduate programme. We made LinkedIn's 25 best workplaces to grow your career in New Zealand list, and Prosple has ranked us top 2 in Engineering Consulting list and top 5 in the overall New Zealand Top 100 Graduate Employers list. 

Aurecon’s strength has always been our people. It’s our people who build our shared purpose and bring ideas to life. It’s our people who imagine and co-create with our clients a better future for people and the planet. Of course, you’ll probably know lots of our award-winning projects.  The new Auckland Light Rail Project? That is us.  Supporting Fonterra transition to a resilient, low-emissions economy with their new biomass boiler at their Waitoa Factory, that is us too. And partnering with Watercare to transform the delivery of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland’s water services? You guessed it, us. So, when you join us, you’ll be joining a community working together to tackle some of the world’s most complex challenges.
