Contribute to NZ’s renewable energy future, enjoy variety, work with talented delivery teams & see your projects come to life.
About Us:
MB Century is a recognised industry leader in providing innovation across Hydro and Geothermal Power Station engineering solutions, Geothermal Drilling and Reservoir Engineering Services. At our head office in Taupo, NZ we have a wide range of services including specialist Fabrication, Machining and Industrial Coatings. With offices in Indonesia and Philippines we have big international plans to support these growing markets.
Our people come together to drive real solutions to shape a sustainable future. Will you join us?
The Opportunity:
Reporting to the Senior Manager – Project & Workshop Services, you’ll lead strategic client partnerships across the hydropower and geothermal sectors, driving commercial growth and procurement excellence.
Based in Wairakei, you’ll play a key role in strengthening and expanding our client relationships across projects, mechanical services, and workshop offerings. You’ll help shape tailored commercial solutions, support tendering and procurement activities, and identify new opportunities in adjacent industries.
This role is focused on pre-delivery engagement and strategic alignment — not project execution — and works closely with internal teams to ensure our offerings meet client needs and market demand.
You’ll primarily be responsible for:
- Building and maintaining trusted relationships with clients across projects, mechanical services, and workshops
- Identifying new client opportunities and emerging industry sectors aligned with MB Century’s capabilities
- Supporting the development of commercial proposals and solution frameworks
- Assisting with tendering activities, including bid coordination, documentation, and submission
- Contributing to procurement strategy and vendor engagement in collaboration with commercial teams
- Coordinating with internal stakeholders (technical, legal, finance) to ensure proposal alignment
- Gathering and sharing client feedback to inform future service development and positioning
- Representing MB Century’s values and capabilities in client-facing forums and industry events.
About You:
We’re looking for a commercially driven professional with a background in heavy industry or mechanical engineering, and a passion for advancing New Zealand’s energy sector. You’ll be a confident communicator, commercially savvy, and thrive in a fast-paced, multi-disciplinary environment.
You’ll bring exceptional organisational skills and a natural ability to keep things moving whilst keeping key stakeholders engaged. With strong expertise in sales and procurement operations, you’ll offer a deep understanding of commercial strategy and execution.
You’ll also bring the following qualifications and skills:
- Experience in client-facing roles within energy, infrastructure, or industrial services
- Familiarity with tendering and procurement processes in New Zealand or similar markets
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
- Commercial awareness and strategic thinking
- Ability to manage multiple priorities and coordinate across teams
- Experience with proposal development and opportunity identification is a plus
You don’t need to meet ALL the criteria listed to be an awesome addition to our team. We encourage anyone who shares a passion for renewable energy to get in touch. You’ll be well supported in your professional development and enjoy being part of a diverse, and collaborative team.
