The Electricity Authority is an independent Crown entity that regulates the electricity sector. We set rules for the electricity sector when they deal with each other, and when they deal with consumers. A recent legislative change brings even greater emphasis to the protection of consumers.
The electricity sector is core to the Government's climate change response.

One of the key things we need to do as a country is move to more renewable energy, which means both greater use of electricity in transport and industry and ensuring as much electricity as possible comes from renewable sources.

About the role

Whether you're developing policy, code provisions, or making it easier for consumers to get the best deal for their electricity use - you'll be making a tangible difference to New Zealanders' lives.

You will be joining the team which focuses on electricity retailers and lines companies.
As a skilled Analyst, the focus of your role will be to help create an innovative, consumer-centric industry.

You will own your work, relishing the chance to work on a variety of interesting projects and firmly grasping the opportunity to shine with both hands.

Benefits of working for us

  • Flexible work arrangements
