If you want to make a difference to the lives of our tamariki and whanau, enjoy engaging with communities, have existing networks with iwi and community organisations, take a collaborative approach and like to work on your own and as part of a team, then this role is for you.

As a visible role within the community, you will actively engage and collaborate with local iwi, service providers, community groups, and agencies to ensure accurate information is being communicated to families and the court where applicable, as well as understanding the availability and suitability of their services and resources.

A key aspect of the Kaiarahi role will be relationship building between these communities and the Justice system, bringing your knowledge of the Family Court and Judicial Services processes to the conversation to work with participants and the court to facilitate access to justice.

A full driver's licence is also required.

This position is operating at a community leadership level, so the ability to be self-managed and work both independently and with your regional team is key. We are also looking for someone who has the ability work fairly independently as well as part of a team, and brings in a good level of creativity and innovation to our space.

Key skills and experience include:

- Excellent relationship management skills
- A high level of comfort working with Whanau, Hapu and Iwi
- Have an understanding and appreciation of cultural issues and concerns in particular Tikanga Maori
- Technical knowledge and experience in Family and District Courts would be highly advantageous
- The ability to understand and communicate complex documents, including legislation, financial, numerical, and business information.

**Mō mātou/About us**

At Te Tāhū o te Ture - the Ministry of Justice, we're committed to working together for a fair and safe Aotearoa.

Joining Te Tāhū o te Ture means you will become part of an organisation that welcomes and supports people of all gender identities, ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, disabilities and religions.
