AI Adoption specialist – New Zealand

Mō te tūranga | About the role

We’re looking for an AI Adoption Specialist to help turn curiosity into practical change across Fulton Hogan. In this permanent, full-time role, ideally based in Christchurch, you’ll work with teams across the business to spot where AI can genuinely improve the way work gets done, then help embed new ways of working that stick.

This is a great role for someone in change, business improvement, adoption, or a similar business-facing role who likes variety, enjoys working with real people in real environments, and can build credibility with operational teams. One day you might be running a workshop, the next mapping a business process, coaching local champions, or helping a team move from idea to measurable impact. If you like project variety, visible outcomes, and plenty of room to grow, you’ll find that here.

You’ll also be joining our growing AI Practice at an exciting stage, helping shape how we use AI across the business and playing a real part in where we go next.
