    Description

    About the Company Tradestaff Global is a leading provider of workforce solutions in the construction sector. We pride ourselves on connecting skilled professionals with unique opportunities. Currently, we are seeking experienced Flooring Installers to join our team at McMurdo Station in Antarctica for the upcoming summer season. About the Role The Antarctic season runs from October 2025 to March 2026, with deployment expected around October. While the return dates will be confirmed later, we are looking for dedicated individuals ready to embrace this extraordinary experience in one of the most isolated yet stunning locations on Earth. This role is not for everyone; it requires a strong work ethic and a willingness to adapt to a challenging environment. You will be part of a large commercial construction project focused on interior flooring installation. Your responsibilities will include preparation work, base leveling, laying carpet tiles, installing rolled vinyl flooring, and ensuring clean, accurate finishes. While your tasks may vary, precision and consistency are key, and experience in commercial flooring installation is essential. Requirements This opportunity is limited to New Zealand and US citizens who hold New Zealand or US passports and are currently residing and working in New Zealand. Applicants must be willing to receive vaccinations for Flu, Tdap, and MMR. Please note that these positions are not 'fly in fly out'; you will be stationed on-site for an extended period, working long hours, six days a week. Successful candidates must pass medical and dental checks, obtain security clearance, and adhere to any required notice periods and flight availability. A pre-employment drug and alcohol test is also mandatory. Additionally, a Full Class 1 NZ Driver Licence and a clean criminal record are required. Please be prepared to travel to Tauranga for medical and dental exams, with costs for testing and flights covered for those traveling from outside the Bay of Plenty. The application process can be lengthy, and we appreciate your patience. Benefits We offer a competitive hourly rate of $66.11, with contracts paid on a fortnightly basis in New Zealand dollars for a standard 54-hour work week. Our team will arrange flights from any major New Zealand airport, and we provide food, shared accommodation, and travel insurance. All necessary personal protective equipment will be supplied. While the work is demanding, you will be compensated well, have the opportunity to save money, gain invaluable experience, and forge lasting friendships. If you have always wanted to explore Antarctica, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. What Now? To apply, please submit your updated CV online, highlighting your commercial construction skills and experience, as well as the types of projects you have worked on. If your application is successful, we will reach out to you with further details regarding the interview and verification process. Candidates must be IT literate, possess strong attention to detail, follow instructions effectively, and manage complex paperwork efficiently. We encourage you to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Please apply online now. Note that we can only accept online applications, and you will receive an automatic confirmation once your application is successfully submitted. Explore additional opportunities across the construction industry, including roles for Carpenters, Machine Operators, Electricians, Plumbers, HVAC Technicians, Duct Installers, Pipefitters, Welders, and more at our website.
