Ground based work in NZ and Auz (advice wanted)

[boreal]

Hello all

 

Firstly forgive me for starting yet another down under thread.

Straight to the point I'm looking to try out ideally New Zealand and or maybe Australia.

Although there seems to be plenty of jobs for climbers out on the various websites I am not looking for a climbing job.

Ideally I'd like to move in to a surveying role on row and powerlines, although am open to ideas or suggestions.

 

If anyone has any interesting points of view or directions it would be very much appreciated.

 

I'm qualified with a degree in forestry, have various cs tickets, a clean crb and driving licence.

 

Cheers guys

Yeah go for it, just contact the main utility providers where you want to work, see what they say. Some networks undertake their own work, others have contractors, or do both. In N.Z try Asplundh, Treescape, Tree Tech are 3 large companies, other than that my local network is WEL, but I'm not sure about other regions.
