Mō tēnei tūrangi mahi | About this role

We are seeking a Senior Analyst to join the Stewardship Strategy team within our Office of the Chief Executive at Ministry for the Environment.

This is a superb opportunity to utilise your strategic policy skills, working at the heart of our organisation.

You will be involved in engaging in our longer-term direction setting and ensuring the Ministry steps into foresight thinking and planning.

Your ability to connect our work to the latest global trends and forecasts, foster futures thinking, and work collaboratively across teams is valued in this role.

As a Senior Analyst, you will provide coordination and technical leadership for projects and have the opportunity to mentor junior members of the team - working closely with analysts to problem solve issues.

Your former experience will demonstrate you have taken the lead on policy projects as opposed to purely supporting.
This role will report to the Manager - OCE and Stewardship Strategy.

Working in collaboration with our Seniors, you will develop a pan-organisation view to provide insights on organisational performance and opportunity.

Ngā pūkenga me ngā wheako | Skills and experience

We are looking for someone with policy development and analysis experience who can deliver quality written work in a fast-paced environment.

If you want to build a strong partnership with senior mentors and the chance to experience working across the organisation, look no further.

This role calls for high levels of motivation along with proven relationship management skills, the ability to build credibility and trust across diverse groups and sound understanding of the end-to-end policy process within the machinery of government.

We will appreciate your passion to link up across all areas of MfE's work programme and your interest in furthering your skills in the Office of the Chief Executive.


Key to your success will also be:

  • previous experience supporting and leading policy projects in a government agency
- sound understanding of the policy lifecycle and legislative processes in the machinery of government (it's a bonus if you have OCE exposure but not essential)
- proven ability to confidently communicate and engage with stakeholders at all levels across the public sector, inclusive of Ministers
- ability to develop strong partnerships and problem solve issues
- good competency in Te Ao Māori and understands kaupapa Māori concepts and the value of Mātauranga in MfE's work programme
- a collaborative approach to working with your team and across the wider OCE group to ensure our strategic priorities are delivered.
- ability to work closely with multiple stakeholders on multiple projects and maintain a strong focus on quick turnaround of quality advice and information
- the ability to take a calm and structured approach across work programs in a dynamic environment where there is a level of ambiguity

Most importantly you will be passionate about looking for realistic and effective ways of achieving environmental outcomes.
Whānuitanga Utu ā-Tau | Salary range
Salary range for this role is $105,802 to $128,424 pa. Appointment within this range will be based on skills and experience.
Ngā hua ka puta i te mahi ki MfE | Benefits of working at MfE

- agile ways of working, allowing you variety and challenges across the organisation as we work as 'One MfE'
