Te tĪma | The team:

When you work in Parliament, you don't just watch democracy in action, you're part of it.

And in the Office of the Clerk we work at its core, providing advisory services to the House of Representatives, directly assisting the House and its committees with the business of Parliament.


Mō te tūnga | About the role:

As a Deputy Clerk of Committee, you'll be the lead report writer within a team of staff who support one or more of Parliament's select committees.

  • draft reports on behalf of select committees.
- liaise with departmental advisers and submitters.

As a Deputy Clerk you will support the other members of your secretariat, sometimes stepping into the shoes of a Committee Clerk, and sometimes assisting with meeting administration

These tasks may include:
- coordinating a select committee's programme of work.
- briefing committee chairpersons.
- providing advice on parliamentary procedures.

  • We actively represent our values of Courage, Integrity, Manaakitanga, Impartiality and Kaitiakitanga.
  • We offer a thorough induction, ongoing development and excellent working conditions.

The appointing salary range for this role is $74,203 to $81,926 per annum.

Appointments will be based on skills and experience (please note, the full salary range extends beyond this to allow for tenure progression).
