Join the Firstgas team (a Clarus group company) and enjoy a career full of good energy and great rewards.

He aha koe ka aroha ai ki a Clarus (Why you'll love Clarus)

At Clarus you’re part of the team of talented specialists helping safely deliver the vital energy New Zealand needs to thrive today and in the future. From starting out in Taranaki our Firstgas, Rockgas, Firstlight Network, Firstlight Renewables, Flexgas and Gas Service NZ operations now span the length and breadth of Aotearoa — so you’re never far away from our good energy. Clarus is investing in opportunities to develop greener alternatives to natural gas and LPG - like partnering with Ecogas to deliver New Zealand’s first renewable biomethane project, and working with other gas distributors to trial hydrogen blending.  We care about the communities where we live and work and are guided by principles of inclusiveness, kaitiakitanga and excellence.

We're looking towards the future...

And right now, we're looking for an engineering graduate (mechanical, civil, chemical/process) to kick off their career with us in Taranaki in the pipeline engineering graduate programme in the Firstgas pipeline engineering team at Clarus. 

Not only will you get to be part of a supportive organisation that delivers value right now to Aotearoa; you'll also be earning a competitive salary and working alongside our talented team in Bell Block that always have your back.

This graduate opportunity will develop you in the entire lifecycle of pipeline engineering including design, operations, maintenance, pipeline integrity management and pipeline safety management.

There will be exposure of other areas of engineering from interaction and support including upstream production infrastructure and downstream distribution.

This role is more than just a graduate role - expect to get out and about in the field, access to support that will grow you both personally and professionally, as well as contribute to community initiatives that we support.  Oh and did we mention we'll sort you with a cool Taranaki summer experience alongside our summer interns.

To be successful in this role you'll need:

• Recent or soon to be graduate in Engineering (mechanical, civil, chemical/process). 
• A motivated problem solver.
• An eagerness to develop and learn (and teach us a thing or two along the way).
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate in a team and work independently.
