Start your engineering design career with the Top Graduate Employer for R&D/Manufacturing for the 2nd year running!

What’s on offer for 2025…

We have several opportunities in our central Dunedin design teams starting 20 January 2025 for naturally curious, driven graduates with the initiative and desire to apply learning and skills to the design of luxury premium products. 

Our Product Development world is jam-packed with meaningful work designed for a changing world.

In our Design Centres we offer stimulating work and positive learning environments.  Beyond loving the day-to-day work, grads enjoy our collaborative working style and continuous learning experience. 

“This is a great industry to learn in. There are heaps of opportunities, and there’s a real openness here to new ways, ideas and options – different perspectives are valued; it’s collaborative and outcome oriented. Everyone works together, and the culture is one of really valuing sustainability – everybody is really passionate and driven to improve.” 

In Dunedin, our teams are designing the next generation of Cooking and Dishwashing products. You probably already know some of our products – wouldn’t you love to be part of the team enhancing them even more as we continue to work on our goals of sustainability and premium customer experience on the global stage?

We are looking for a diverse group of applicants who demonstrate: 

• Strong communication skills
• A love for problem solving and getting hands on
• Curiosity and initiative with a drive to ongoing learning and development
• Ability to contribute positively and professionally in a team environment, while also being self-driven.

For these specific teams you will need to be on target to complete your studies this year towards an Undergraduate or Postgraduate Degree in Mechanical Engineering, and ideally you are excited about the ongoing innovation and science in dishwasher or cooking systems and structures. 

What’s on offer…

So much! 

• The opportunity to learn from some of the best in-market Engineers from across the world,
• a collaborative team-based culture,
• a challenging and supportive work environment,
• ongoing extensive investment in your career and personal learning and development,

We also offer a competitive salary, generous Kiwisaver or a Student Loan payback scheme, discounted medical insurance, life and disability insurance, and multiple corporate discounts with banks and retailers. Our Dunedin design centre is based in a shopping centre, with plenty of food options nearby, and many of our people enjoy an active commute on bikes or walking/running. We have lots of social clubs and fun stuff happening all the time and being a cooking design centre, there’s also a lot of food coming out of our labs and kitchens to keep you nourished.

Our CEO started here as a grad. So did our Executive of Product Development. When we say career growth at Fisher & Paykel is tangible, we really mean it. Joining our Graduate programme you will work hands-on in project teams, innovating and influencing real product design. Deep-diving into Product Development offers real-time learning from some of the best in industry, and we’re stoked to have you there – grads bring fresh perspective that means we learn from you, too. Some of our best ideas have come from grads, and some of their best career stories have come from us.  Come join us!
