Celebration Day – you’ll be entitled to an extra paid day off every year to celebrate something important to you.
Extra week off – you can purchase an additional week’s leave and take 5 weeks off each year if you want more time out.
You’ll also enjoy subsidised health insurance, fresh fruit baskets delivered to your office, enhanced parental leave provisions, our Employee Assistance Programme, 10 days of sick leave and the possibility of flexible working hours.
Career development
Get ready to go from good… to great. As the saying goes, you’re only as good as the company you keep. That’s why we place a lot of emphasis on training our people here at Harrison Grierson. We offer a dedicated, long-term programme with a learning structure that supports our people to reach their chosen professional goals sooner. Our development philosophy also supports our team throughout the various stages of their career whether they are graduates, mid career or senior professionals.
In-House Development
We recognise that so much of what a professional learns comes from working with, and learning from, colleagues and hands-on ‘on the job’ training. Individual divisions and offices also have their own initiatives to ensure ongoing development for their specific disciplines.

We’re also recognised by the Institute of Professional Engineers of New Zealand (IPENZ) as a Professional Development Partner and we have programmes in place that provide pathways to IPENZ competence based membership, for all membership classes.
All our professionals are expected to keep their skills current and up to date to ensure their ongoing memberships.
