Why TTAP

Senior-led, not pyramid-staffed

You work alongside principals on real deliverables, not buried under layers. Early-career engineers get genuine responsibility and genuine mentoring.

The full breadth of NZ transport

Pavement and surfacing design, business cases, modelling, MSQA, safety, asset management — across NZTA programmes, council networks, and major contracts.

Evidence over guesswork

We invest in the tools — FWD, SIDRA, AIMSUN, Power BI dashboards, GPS-tagged field evidence — so your work stands on data you can defend.

Rooted in Aotearoa

Offices in Lower Hutt and Auckland, working the length of the motu — with kaupapa Māori partnerships and a genuine commitment to sustainable transport outcomes.

Life at TTAP

Work beside senior engineers

You learn by doing real work next to principals and chartered engineers — not by watching from the bottom of a pyramid.

Regular development conversations

Monthly one-to-one catch-ups focused on your work, your blockers and your growth — developmental, not box-ticking.

Flexibility that fits

Part-time and flexible arrangements where they suit the work and the person. We hire good people and make it work.

Invested in your craft

The tools (SIDRA, AIMSUN, Power BI, RAMM/AWM) and the professional memberships and conferences that keep your skills current.

A team, not a number

Small enough that everyone is known by name, with social events through the year and an active part in the local business community.

How you'll grow

Graduate to principal

A clear progression from graduate through senior to principal, with responsibility that grows as you do.

Chartership support

Work toward CPEng under chartered engineers who have been through it and will back you.

Secondment opportunities

Embed with client organisations — for example council development-engineering teams — and broaden your experience.

Breadth by design

Exposure across disciplines and across NZTA, council and private-sector work, rather than a single narrow lane.
