We have an opportunity in our Canterbury Events team for a Marquee Operations Supervisor. This is a hands-on leadership role working closely with the Branch Manager to ensure our events are well planned, clearly communicated and executed to a high standard.
The role is physically demanding and you're constantly on the go but there is also much to be learned and you'll have a great team to support you. You'll be out on site, leading from the front and taking ownership of operations. This is a position you can truly make your own, with the opportunity to shape how the team performs and delivers on site.

Some of the responsibilities of this role include:
- Effectively overseeing the work of other Marquee Riggers and temporary labour on site
- Work alongside Hires Store Team Leader to ensure all hire equipment is stored and maintained to a high standard and delivered and returned with due care and attention
- Ensuring all work is carried out safely and in line with any regulatory requirements
- Taking ownership of planning and execution on site—solving problems and keeping things moving
Other requirements & skills needed:
- Full Class 2 Driver Licence is essential (Class 4 and F endorsement are desirable)
- Availability for regular out-of-town work and occasional weekend work depending on event schedules
- High level of technical proficiency in erecting marquees
- Willingness to take ownership and be held accountable - excellent organisational skills
- Able to work with a diverse array of people and build successful working relationships
Who we are:
We offer a comprehensive package of benefits including enhanced employer Kiwisaver contributions, flexible working, and company-funded life insurance.
