Our ambition at Manaaki Whenua - Landcare Research is to enable New Zealanders to make informed decisions about how they use our land, soil, and water resources.


Our purpose is to drive innovation in New Zealand's management of terrestrial biodiversity and land resources, and as such we play a key role in providing information and tools that support effective management of our land resources to both protect and enhance the terrestrial environment and grow New Zealand's prosperity.

18 month fixed-term basis to meet urgent demand in our traditional GIS mapping work.

  • Assisting in reporting and map preparation

About you

Ideally you are also keen to continue learning additional skills as required.

We expect you to have:

  • A tertiary qualification in relevant discipline, such as geographic information systems, geography, or geology; with a focus on GIS and Remote Sensing
  • Experience working with GIS software and related techniques with an interest in growing your technical skills in spatial science and analysis
  • Experience working with nationalscale mapping data, related technology expertise or a range of industrybased experience
  • Working knowledge of ESRI software product suite, especially ESRI ArcGIS
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Experience in working with different cultures and understanding of New Zealand's bicultural approach and Te Tiriti o Waitangi
