Terra Industrial New Zealand Limited

Are you an experienced electrician or generator technician who wants more variety, better equipment, and genuine skill growth? This role offers a solid next move — without excessive call‑outs or constant job hopping.

At Terra Cat, you’ll work across workshop and onsite environments, be exposed to a wide range of generator systems, and build capability on industry‑leading Caterpillar equipment.

Your work will include:

• Fault finding, diagnostics and troubleshooting

Why other team members like this role

• Escape from repetitive site work or call‑out heavy roles
• Exposure to varied, hands‑on technical and mechanical work
• Learning new systems and technology instead of doing the same fixes
• Flexibility of working hours
• Working for a stable, well‑resourced employer with clear career pathways

What we offer

• Competitive hourly rate plus paid overtime after 8 hours/day
• Monday–Friday role with optional overtime or flexible arrangements neg
• Varied, challenging work (no two weeks the same)
• $2,000 p.a. tool allowance + interest‑free tool advances
• Technician Development & Master Technician programmes
• Caterpillar training and regular upskilling
• Subsidised medical insurance
• Employer super contribution up to 6.5%
• Discount fuel card
• Full uniform and PPE provided

What we’re looking for

You’ll be:

• An NZ Registered Electrician, essential
• Experienced in generator installation and maintenance or have a strong interest in generator and mechanical work
• A team player who takes pride in quality work

If your electrical background is solid but generator experience is partial, we’re still keen to talk.
