Our Graduate Programme is all about getting talented Graduates to learn from our expert engineers on exciting, high-profile projects from day one.

We have even created an in-house technical training programme just for our Graduates, called Holmes University, which you’ll attend fortnightly.

There’s plenty to get involved in across our offices at Holmes—we’ve got touch rugby, indoor netball, mountain biking, yoga, bootcamp, running groups, indoor soccer, tramping clubs, and more! Or perhaps weekly pizza and beers is more your thing. At Holmes you’ll find a supportive work environment that truly believes in work / life balance.

We have graduate roles available in our Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland), Te Whanganui-a-Tara (Wellington), and Ōtautahi (Christchurch) offices. If you’re open to working at any of these locations, just let us know the places you’d like to work (in order from your most desired to least desired location).
