Rōia Matua - Waro Iti Senior Legal Counsel - Low Carbon Future

  • Fulltime

Company Description:


We believe that if we want to be a world class Kiwi Company, we shouldn't just employ people, divide them into functional departments and tell them what to do.

Instead, we defined a purpose - to solve what matters for our customers and their moving world - and go about achieving this by setting clear goals and expectations and embracing diversity of thought.


At Z, Customer Experience is at the heart of everything we do - our strategy, capability development and investment decisions.

We're creating and continually developing products and digital channels our customers will love and that make their lives easier.

Z's strategy is to optimise the core business in order to invest in a low carbon future.

A lot of the optimisation work is done, and we are ramping up work on building our low carbon future.

This involves building partnerships, new products and services in a fast paced and dynamic environment and race for the future, including working with our customers on their own transitional journey.

The Z of 2030 and 2050 needs to look very different to today and we are consciously choosing to invest in low-carbon revenue streams that are better for the planet and deliver a sustainable, viable future for our business.


We are currently resourcing our Legal Team to support Z's goal of solving what matters for a moving world enabling our transition to a Low Carbon Future.

This is a fast-paced role requiring a strong balance of risk management and speed based on pragmatic and commercial partnership with the LCF team including membership of the LCF leadership team.


If you looking to use your legal expertise and impactful negotiation skills in an exciting and changing industry, we would love to kōrero.
