Architectural Technician

My journey at Klein has opened numerous doors to opportunities I never dreamt possible.

“Klein’s strong creative identity is founded by its core values and principles through its people and culture; treating each other with respect, authenticity and care encourages us to excel and achieve our best while embracing personal growth.” 

This integrated approach has motivated me to step out of my previous role in residential documentation with professional training in BIM, continually learning and working alongside talented colleagues on specialised Healthcare projects in a real time environment.

Klein fosters my sense of ownership and confidence through involvement during the construction phase, working with a wider team of contractors and consultants. With experienced senior mentorship we observed various sites carrying many challenges but also reaping rewards on multiple fronts.

Looking back, I share immense pride and joy in these projects, and I look forward to coming to work every day facing new, exciting challenges with our team of hardworking, fun, and supportive colleagues who are endlessly driven by quality and the pursuit of excellence.

Associate | Registered Architect

As a first-generation immigrant, finding a company that feels like family is important, and Klein has been exactly that. The nurturing environment here has supported my growth both professionally and personally. Through engaging project opportunities and regular team-building events, I have enjoyed my work while developing strong camaraderie with my Klein whānau.

During my time at Klein, I achieved a significant milestone by becoming a New Zealand Registered Architect, a goal I could not have accomplished as quickly without Klein's unwavering support. The guidance and mentorship provided by the team have been invaluable.

Working alongside colleagues who share my dedication to healthcare architecture is incredibly rewarding. I can reliably draw from the team's diverse expertise and collective creativity to craft innovative solutions tailored to the needs of our projects. Together, we are not just designing buildings; we are shaping the future of healthcare delivery in New Zealand.

I am immensely proud to be part of such a talented and caring team at Klein.
