Te Au Reka - Improving access to justice for all New Zealanders

Te Au Reka represents the opportunity of a lifetime, making a profound difference to those who work in, and interact with, courts and tribunals.

This new digital case management system will help modernise the administration of justice in Aotearoa New Zealand. It will replace highly manual, time-consuming, paper-based processes, transforming the way people access and experience justice in New Zealand.
Te Au Reka is a large, complex and unique programme, spanning courts and tribunals nationwide. In delivering Te Au Reka we're challenging traditional norms in search of more innovative ways of working. We explore, learn and adapt to overcome hurdles and take advantage of opportunities.

We are a high functioning and collaborative team working in a fast-paced environment, motivated by the significance of this work and supporting each other to get it done.

Te Au Reka is a game-changer and we care deeply about making it a success.
