Christchurch, New Zealand Christchurch City Council Full time

Over the years, Greater Christchurch has responded to unprecedented challenges to its social, economic, cultural and environmental fabric. The opportunities and challenges that face our communities and the urban area in Canterbury transcend territorial authority boundaries and require strong partnership to leverage the investment, resources and tools to respond to these. This remains a significant and unique time in which our region needs to position itself for the future through its strategic vision and collaborative leadership.

The Greater Christchurch Partnership is a longstanding broad partnership that brings together health, mana whenua, local, regional and central government working collaboratively for the prosperity of Greater Christchurch.

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced individual to provide thought leadership & strategic advice, relationship management and project leadership to advance the strategic priorities and objectives of the Urban Growth Partnership - Whakawhanake Kāinga Komiti (WKK) and Greater Christchurch Partnership Committee (GCPC).

This is an important role for the partnership so we are looking for someone with previous experience providing strategic advice to stakeholders across multiple organisations as well as experience in leading the delivery of significant projects. Your proven strengths will be your ability to build strong relationships with partners including mana whenua, central government agencies and strategic stakeholders, with a reputation as a trusted advisor.

You will ideally have an understanding of urban development, growth management, regeneration and resilience both in a local and central government context and use this knowledge to understand external factors and scenarios that may affect the programme in the future.

If you are an adept and confident communicator and problem solver and have a genuine passion for making a difference and contributing to our region's aspirations of a prosperous, healthy and sustainable future then we want to hear from you.

More information on the Greater Christchurch Partnership can be found via Greater Christchurch Partnership : Greater Christchurch
