Wellington City, New Zealand New Zealand Government Full time

**Cyclone Recovery Taskforce**: Senior Advisor, Climate Adaptation
Fixed Term or Secondment to March 2025 (flexible on a shorter duration if required)
Mō tēnei tūranga mahi | About this role
The Cyclone Recovery Taskforce team are based in central Wellington, and we offer a flexible by default style of working, meaning a positive work life balance is encouraged. The salary range for this senior level role is $110,000 - $120,000 p/a (including Kiwisaver contributions)
Ko wai koe | About you
To be successful in this role you will be comfortable working in the following style:

- Problem solving in the context of ambiguity and uncertainty.
- Ability to rapidly analyse and convey complex information and make effective, well-reasoned decisions.
- Working effectively with a broad range of stakeholder.
- Used to working as a cohesive team with a shared goal and vision.
- Excellent time management and organised approach to your work.
- Fast around systems and tech savvy.
- Previous relevant experience in a senior advisory role either within planning or climate adaptation.
- Experience within the public sector (ideally local and central government) and sound knowledge of the machinery of government.
- Experience working with elected members and governing bodies, ministerial offices and briefing Ministers.

Our Purpose - Ā Mātou Kaupapa
The Cyclone Recovery Taskforce is hosted by the Department of the Prime Minister & Cabinet (DPMC), and therefore it will take on the values of DPMC as well as its corporate policies and procedures and be supported by DPMC.
The approach to the ongoing recovery from the recent extreme weather events including the Auckland Anniversary flooding and Cyclones Hale and Gabrielle will focus on being locally led and centrally supported. The main purpose of the Taskforce is to align locally led recovery plans with the work of government agencies and the private sector across economic and infrastructure recovery efforts. The Taskforce will advise Ministers on prioritisation and sequencing of needs, will provide an independent view on the effectiveness of recovery activities, and will cover issues to do with managed retreat and other adaptation and resilience issues. The Taskforce will also oversee specialist groups of experts who will advise the Government on what is required for the recovery and how to improve resilience to climate change and severe weather in the future.
