Location Transport

Looking for shipping companies that are based out of NZ. Which are the big ones?

Looking for potential employers. I have a master in Marine Technology (essentially ships), and would like to move to NZ. A lot of shipping companies have offices in NZ with alomost no employees there. I need someone that is big in NZ too in order to be in a work environment that suits me. Anyone have any suggestions? (a list would be good, but I take anything!).

1. Here are two sites that have lists of shipping companies based in new Zealand.. http://www.finda.co.nz/business/c/shipping-companies/ http://www.indexnz.com/Top/Business-and-Economy/Transportation/Sea-Transport/Shipping-Companies/
2. The last of the big shipping companies(Union Steam Ships Co of NZ) shut down a few years back most NZ based shipping in now coastal trade and inter-island ferries so it could be quite difficult to find suitable employment
