ORAFOL launching New Zealand branch in 2025

ORAFOL has commenced recruiting for a full branch operation in New Zealand/Aotearoa, following the establishment of a sales branch in May 2024. ORAFOL has expanded rapidly in the Asia-Pacific region, under recently appointed APAC Executive VP, Alex McClelland.

Steve Maclean will head up the New Zealand branch, as General Manager. Maclean comes with years of experience in signage, display, architectural and materials supply, having served many years with Cohesive and Computaleta. He was onboarded in September and underwent training at Orafol's Sydney HQ,
 

Now, Orafol NZ is actively recruiting for multiple roles, in opreprations for an  official 2025 launch of the branch. The positions include:

• Account Managers / Business Development Managers
• Various levels of Operations and Customer Service Roles
• Administrative Manager

Auckland location premises are currently being finalised.

Maclean says, "Joining ORAFOL NZ means more than just a job. It’s a chance to be part of a New Zealand start-up backed by a global industry leader.  We're looking to help shape our culture and direction from day one, growing your careers alongside a rapidly expanding ORAFOL APAC region. The new team will support a diverse range of customers and projects across our extensive graphics innovations, reflective solutions, and adhesive tape systems range." 

ORAFOL has steadily expanded globally, becoming a major supplier of self-adhesive films, reflective safety materials and recently celebrated 35 years of operation following the fall of the Berlin Wall. It is still family-owned and managed, with a remarkable record of achievement, investment and growth following years of state-controlled operation in the former GDR.

The establishment of a dedicated New Zealand branch will cement a true north-to-south global presence for the company and further strengthen its Asia-Pacific/Oceania footprint.

Applications for the available positions are invited from interested candidates.
