Tēnei tūranga │ About the Role
We’re looking for an experience Principal Advisor to support our growing research and data analytics function.
Sitting within the newly created Information, Research and Analytics team, this role will provide intellectual leadership and oversight of the core processes, techniques, and change initiatives required to support the analytics function. This will include formulating data collection plans, establishing connections with data analyst networks across our agency counterparts and industry partners, and identifying opportunities to automate reporting processes and products.
Taking a system view, the role will have oversight of the broad data picture and be able to make connections between ideas and people. The role will also take the lead in supporting our team’s transition to the new enterprise technology platform and spearheading changes to the way we work with our analytics stack. Ultimately this role determines how we utilise data to inform our decisions and make data accessible to support safety outcomes in aviation.

You will have worked extensively with analytics stacks, ideally R, SQL, Power BI, GIT code repository, and/or Machine Learning.
You will be proactive in building relationships and support for your work, working collaboratively with stakeholders to identify requirements, and communicate complex concepts and evidence. You will be able to look across a system, connecting ideas and insights to advance evidence-based decision making, ensuring that the information that is collected is well-informed and takes a broad and inclusive perspective.
We’re looking for someone who can work with others to develop future possibilities within the research and data analytics space - then plan and manage the changes needed to bring those possibilities to life. You will have experience working with senior managers and others to lead the intellectual direction of the team.
As a safety regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority exists to enable safe flight for social connections, and economic benefit for New Zealand. We believe in keeping people safe and secure in the air, enabling participation in the aviation system, and making a difference to New Zealand aviation. We achieve this through regulatory oversight of the aviation industry and frontline security at our airports.
The foundation for achieving this is our values, which guide how we work and the behaviours we expect from each other.
- Me mahi tahi - Collaboration We work together to achieve and succeed.
- Me mahi pono - Transparency We are open and honest communicators.
- Me mahi tika - Integrity We do the right thing.
- Me manaaki - Respect We treat all people with consideration and kindness.

We invest in our people by supporting development within the organisation. To support the health and wellbeing of our employees we offer flu vaccinations, contributions towards eyewear and a flexible working environment by arrangement.
We offer 5 weeks of annual leave and can match your Kiwi Saver contribution up to 4%.
CAA strongly encourages and supports all our people to be vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19. However our current policy position is that vaccination is not a requirement for employment in this role. Please note that CAA may, if needed, introduce a vaccination requirement for managing an epidemic.
