Company Overview

Roskill Sheetmetal Works is a subsidiary of the Roskill Group (roskill.co.nz), a well-
established New Zealand construction and manufacturing group. Roskill Sheetmetal Works
specialises in metal product processing, custom sheet-metal fabrication, and the production and installation of building components.

We have been a long-term supplier to commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and
municipal infrastructure projects, delivering end-to-end services from design support and
fabrication to on-site installation. Our product portfolio includes roofing and cladding
systems, facade assemblies, ventilation and ducting solutions, and a wide range of industrial metal products.

As market competition intensifies and demand grows for more durable, low-carbon, and
innovative construction materials, we are accelerating our shift toward advanced sustainable building solutions. To support this strategy, we are recruiting a Procurement Manager (Innovated Building Materials).

Job Summary

The Procurement Manager (Innovated Building Materials) will lead Roskill Sheetmetal
Works’ global sourcing and procurement of next-generation sustainable building materials.
This role is central to identifying, evaluating, and securing high-performance materials that
are lightweight, energy-efficient, low-maintenance, and environmentally responsible—then
enabling their real-world application in our fabrication, construction, and installation projects.

By introducing world-leading innovative materials into our product and project pipeline, this
position will help reduce manufacturing and installation costs, extend product life cycles, and lower long-term maintenance requirements—strengthening our competitive edge and
supporting Roskill’s sustainable growth vision.
