Description

About Us

Clever Core New Zealand is an off-site manufacturer of the structural core for residential housing.  We work with architects and designers to develop plans that are compatible with our large-scale automated manufacturing process.  These plans are used to manufacture closed wall panels, and floor and roof cassettes.  These products are then assembled-on site by our assembly team to complete our customer offering. Offsite manufacturing is considered one of the best practices for streamlining the production of homes at scale and pace.

We have a vision at Clever Core New Zealand, and that is to create a positive culture within our Plant, and this will be created through solid leadership and people managers that focus on bringing the right people into the business.  We also want to train and develop our people to have multi discipline set of skills in our plant. We care about what we do and how we do it and this mindset is top of the list for each person we recruit into the business.

As a Design Project Lead reporting to the Design and Contracts Manager, you will be required to:
  • Lead design projects by coordinating with client/customer, internal design team, engineers, service consultants, external suppliers, manufacturing and assembly teams to deliver on client specifications and expectations.
  • Manage the modelling of designs with support from the Design Technician team to ensure building code requirements are met and to enable a smooth manufacturing and assembly process.
  • Ensure the panelisation building systems are optimal in design to minimise defects, troubleshoot issues and provide solutions as required.
  • Review the fabrication model, shop drawings and machine files of panelised houses for manufacture using our specialised offsite construction software HSBCAD and approve ahead of production.
  • Participate in identifying and delivering innovation projects to enhance product efficiency and effectiveness.

  • Knowledge of offsite house construction methodologies/techniques
  • Experience in both 2D and 3D CAD modelling/knowledge or experience in HSBCAD software package would be an advantage
