The Property Group (TPG) is a locally owned property and RMA planning consultancy, bringing Kiwis together to build Aotearoa New Zealand for over two decades. We advise on delivering the critical roads, rail and bridges that connect us, the spaces and buildings where our vibrant communities live, and the essential public facilities we rely on.
We are inherently Kiwi. Our highly skilled team of 170 right across New Zealand bring unique knowledge in a local context and a trusted, independent point of view. TPG is at the forefront of embracing change, driving progress, and helping to shape our communities of tomorrow. We are building a stronger New Zealand, together.
We pride ourselves on providing a positive culture and stimulating work environment for our people. Our values form the foundation of our culture and influence our approach to our clients and to each other. We encourage a culture where all team members can contribute and reach their potential.
We understand this may be your first formal job application, so we aim to provide a supportive process and ensure our applicants have a positive candidate experience with us.
Apply online - Our programme usually opens in April/May for three weeks! You can apply online through the job opportunities on our profile. You will need a current CV, cover letter, and a copy of your most recent academic transcript.
Video meet and greet – We review all applications and invite shortlisted applicants to submit a short video. We will ask you a few questions to learn more about you and your interest in our graduate programme.
Interview - Our interview process is all about getting to know each other. We want to hear more about you and your background, and you can learn more about TPG and our graduate roles. It also includes some practical exercises to test your communication and problem-solving skills.
Coffee catch-up – We invite all potential new employees to meet with a member of the team for an informal chat. It is a good opportunity to meet one of the team outside the formal interview process.
Job offer – In July/August we will get in touch to confirm the outcome of your interview. If you are offered a job, we will do a reference and background check and then you will receive a formal offer through our online HR system.
Welcome to the team – We look forward to you joining TPG! Our graduates start in mid-January or February. There may be some flexibility with start dates which we will discuss with you through the offer process.
Our graduate development programme is built around great relationships and collaboration – we have a wealth of knowledge and expertise to share and welcome the fresh ideas and perspectives graduates bring to our team.
The two-year programme provides graduates with a breadth of exposure to the business and develops well-rounded consultants who can progress their career with TPG.
