**Reo kupu | About this role**

This role involves three related - but distinct - areas of responsibility.

The first involves supporting the overall readiness of the Rotorua Civil Defence and emergency Management (CDEM) Emergency Operations Centre (EOC), including support systems such as Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's).

The second involves building community resilience by encouraging local communities, marae and businesses to plan and prepare for a civil emergency.

The third involves leading the 'Welfare Function' for the Rotorua CDEM EOC, as per the CIMS framework. (Coordinated Incident Management System). That role includes leading and organising the local Welfare Committee and proactive engagement with Iwi, community groups and partner agencies to ensure relationships are formed that will support an effective, coordinated and community wide welfare response to a civil emergency. It also involves leading the Welfare Function (i.e. Welfare Manager role) when the EOC is activated.

The community resilience and welfare lead elements of this position require a high level of competence and skill in respect of:

- leading through influence
- motivating others to contribute discretionary effort
- facilitating interactions involving people with a diverse range of viewpoints and conflicting priorities, and
- problem solving

The role also requires a high level of adaptability and a willingness to work outside of standard business hours in order to attend community and stakeholder meetings; and a willingness to respond to and support an emergency response on a 24/7 basis.
