We are committed to keeping to the Treaty of Waitangi's guiding principles in our work for and with Māori customers and our employees, their whānau, hapū and iwi.

Above all else, you are a team player. The Technology Services team is successful due to its people, we work outside of siloes and across functions. Maintaining these relationships (at all levels) requires effort but is key as the complexity of technology and business requirements increases.
