We are also one of the country's largest employers and we are here to stay. We are committed to our people, because we know they are who set us up for success.

You will also provide audio-visual (AV) and eConferencing technical and operational support (for teaching and events) and act as a point of escalation for Desktop Support enquiries on the Wellington campus.


Add to these your excellent communication skills that see you deliver effective assistance to students, support staff and other University stakeholders alike, and you'll thrive.


You'll be backed by a supportive wider team who are as eager to impart their skills as you are to learn and develop.
