About Your Location

The Trimble Christchurch office is a modern building with access to a gym on site, cafes in the area and bordered by park reserves, while still being a few minutes from the central city. Most teams operate as hybrid workers, allowing the flexibility of working remotely a few days a week or in the office. A flexible work arrangement can be negotiated with your manager and the wider team.
