Chief Executive

  • Highprofile and growing district
  • Highperforming organisation
  • Great lifestyle location


The Waipā District is a very special place and we are on the hunt for an inspirational leader to be the next Chief Executive of our Council.

We are looking for a fresh strategic thinker who understands the challenges of leading an organisation through change and growth; someone who is a strong relationship builder with a high level of emotional intelligence, is adaptable, and is driven to get the very best community outcomes.

You will be an outstanding senior leader with experience of leading a large operational organisation or substantial business unit and you will bring a fresh set of eyes and an innovative approach to the table.

You will have sound financial and political acumen.
As a leader, you are agile and adaptive, with integrity and authenticity at the heart of your leadership style.

You will recognise the role of mana whenua in the district and be willing to learn about, respect and actively engage with Māori culture and tikanga as an integral part of the role.

You will also have an understanding of the public sector and local government, with a demonstrated ability to set and achieve ambitious organisational goals.

In return, you will live in or around one of our main towns, Cambridge and Te Awamutu, in the centre of the 'golden triangle' between, enjoying an incredible lifestyle in a district renowned for its agriculture, equine industry, tourism and high-performance sport.

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a 350-strong team of professionals who are passionate about delivering services to their district.

If you're inspired by our vision and feel that you have the right blend of skills, experience and values to lead our hard-working team, we want to hear from you.
