ATNZ - We Train The Best



If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!


ATNZ is New Zealand’s largest employer of apprentices in the engineering trades, spanning across fabrication, mechanical engineering, refrigeration and air conditioning. With ATNZ support, our apprentices work in some of New Zealand’s leading engineering organisations and gain valuable skills and experience that see them become highly sought-after tradespeople.  We are a team of passionate people working to provide high quality pathways for motivated people who want to learn and earn their way to a trade. We make a real difference in people’s lives, while also building the capability of New Zealand’s workforce in the engineering sector. 


The Role:


ATNZ is looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Account Manager to provide tailored training, assessment and support to our Fabricating, Mechanical Engineering, and Refrigeration & Air Conditioning apprentices, through coaching, mentoring and management. When you’re not out visiting host companies and apprentices, this is a work‑from‑home role. This role is Auckland based. Experience or a background in Refrigeration & HVAC would be highly regarded, as it brings valuable industry insight to the role - however, it’s not a deal breaker.

A pivotal part of your role will involve building strong relationships with current and potential host companies, understanding their core business and learner requirements. You will also support the learning and wellbeing of your apprentices and assess whether they are competent to industry standards. In this demanding and fast-paced role you will use your excellent people skills to develop rewarding careers for our apprentices and help steer them on the road to success.


This is a meaningful time to join our organisation. Three years on from our successful transition to an independent Private Training Establishment, we’re in a period of strong growth - grounded in our values and commitment to people. As we continue to invest in our learners, our host partners, and our team, this role will evolve and grow, offering the opportunity to make a genuine impact and be part of shaping our future.


Please note: In order to be successful in this role you need to hold an Engineering Trade Certificate or Trade Qualification (or higher).
