Sandfield

We’re Sandfield, and we build innovative software solutions for some of Australasia’s top brands. 

We’re working on some pretty cool projects right now, and there’s plenty more in our (very long) pipeline...so we need a Project Manager to join our awesome team.

About Sandfield

We're a Kiwi-owned company that's been around since 1989. Our work facilitates high-performance supply chains for Mainfreight, Qube, HW Richards, and Booths and keeps millions of orders and data points flowing for Foodstuffs. It also manages business finances for Team Global Express and Green Acres, helps fill seats on the Interislander for KiwiRail, looks after security services for First Security, and books parking spaces through ParkMate—plus so much more.

We pride ourselves on being different from your typical tech company. At Sandfield, we guarantee your ‘every day’ will be interesting, varied, challenging, and fun! You’ll get to work with a range of smart people who are making a difference and who also happen to be really great people.

Our collaborative culture is at the centre of everything we do at Sandfield, making it a special place to work. We know this because people also tend not to leave, with the average length of stay being around six years. 

As an organisation, we’re also very conscious of our environmental footprint and are currently on a journey to become carbon neutral in the very near future.
