About Sandfield

We’re a leading, Kiwi-owned, software business that prides itself on NOT just being a conventional tech company.

We've been backing ourselves, and our ability to create great solutions for clients, since we first opened our doors in 1989. Since then, we’ve developed some pretty innovative systems for clients which leave other, more high-profile, software packages in the dust.

Our work facilitates high-performance supply chains for the likes of Mainfreight, Qube and Allied Concrete and keeps millions of orders and data points flowing for Foodstuffs. It also manages business finances for Team Global Express and Green Acres, helps fill seats on the Interislander for KiwiRail and keeps Les Mills members engaged...plus so much more.

At Sandfield we take on 7-9 interns a year, ideally, you will be in your penultimate or going into your last year of university studying for an Information Technology / Computer Science / Software Engineering degree with the career aspirations to move into a software development role where you will be exposed to a wide range of technologies.

Our next active recruitment period for 2027 opportunities is between Jan to June 2026 for with internships starting in November 2026. We are also often looking for Graduates to join the team as well, therefore register your interest and we will be in touch.

The majority of our interns that we have had in the past have moved into permanent positions within Sandfield once their degrees have finished.

Our pitch to you

We know it’s a competitive market out there and loads of other companies are also probably trying to ‘woo’ you right now with big numbers and equally big promises.

What we can offer is something a little more special.

Our developers get to deal directly with our clients and we spend just as much time nurturing soft skills, such as communication and business acumen, as we do helping our developers be even more ‘ninja’ at their coding.

We guarantee your ‘everyday’ will be interesting, varied, challenging and fun! You’ll get to work with a range of other smart developers of all levels, who also happen to be really great people too.

Our collaborative culture is at the centre of everything we do at Sandfield and it makes it a pretty special place to work. We know this because people also don’t tend to leave - i.e. the average length of service here is at least five years.

We also have a drinks fridge, funky offices and ‘fun food Evenings’!
