Port of Auckland

We are excited to spotlight Ruihi, one of our incredible wahine crane and straddle drivers at the port 🏗️ Ruihi joined the port in 2021 after relocating back to Aotearoa from Sydney. She is a proud member of Maritime Union of New Zealand and part of our Taumata rōpū (Māori leadership group), which brings the port’s Māori Outcomes Strategy framework to life. Her role involves operating a crane sitting as high as 45 metres, loading and unloading containers on and off ships at the berth. She also drives straddles, sitting as high as 13 metres, stacking and moving containers. These containers are then transported to trucks, allowing people and communities in the region to access their goods ⭐ Ruihi is proud to work at the port as a strong wahine Māori, operating heavy machinery in a traditionally male-dominated industry. Like us, she would love to see more wāhine joining the industry 👷♀️ Learn more about her journey and the importance of her role here: https://lnkd.in/gizqnuME. #aklport #portlife #staffhero #ourpeople

Over the school holidays, we launched our first youth leadership programme, POAL x Tamaliki Ohi Kaiga, in partnership with The Salvation Army 😊 We had a wonderful cohort of 17 inquisitive young leaders, all family members of our port staff. The programme included activities onsite at the port (including a port bus tour 🚌), time in the community, and a 3-day camp at the Blue Mountain Adventure Centre (BMAC) in National Park. It was a joy to meet the whānau of our staff and have them visit the port, seeing firsthand the hard work their parents and family members put in to keep things running! The programme concluded last Friday with a graduation ceremony and celebration for all the children who participated 🎓 It was a fantastic week investing in our rangatahi 🌟 #aklport #portlife #leadership #rangatahi Vanessa Wolfgramm

What a wonderful time it was opening the port gates for our public bus tours in collaboration with Auckland Heritage Festival 🚌 Auckland Heritage Festival is an annual city-wide event celebrating the city’s diverse heritage. It’s a great chance to explore exhibitions, walks, talks — and of course, bus tours. The city of Auckland and the port have grown together on the Waitematā and Manukau Harbour for more than 175 years, so we were stoked to be part of this special event. We are so proud of our port and love seeing the public enjoy it too. We look forward to seeing those of you who have tickets for our Thursday tours! 🎟️ #aklport #aucklandheritagefestival #portlife

Cranes lifting Cranes Port of Auckland Stevedoring team unloaded a telescopic crawler crane. Was a complicated 4-point lift that was off-center and had to be rotated from the Bow-Starboard direction on the ship to truck. Handled very professionally by the POAL Terminal Stevedoring team.
