Auckland City, New Zealand Auckland Transport Full time

Are you looking for a role working on the water in the beautiful harbours of the Auckland Region?

Auckland Transport is leading the development of transport infrastructure and solutions that enable healthy and accessible communities. Regardless of your choice to walk, cycle, drive, take the ferry or train, we are passionate about working together to deliver safe, efficient, innovative and sustainable options whilst providing a transport system that will create a vibrant and connected Auckland.

We are on a journey and working to shape our organisation through an ambitious transformation programme providing for more effective and efficient AT.

Delivering Auckland's transport solution on such a mammoth scale is no mean feat and we need a talented team to ensure we are up to this task.

**Te Whiwhinga mahi | The opportunity**

The Auckland Harbourmaster is responsible for maritime safety on the navigable waters of Auckland including the Manukau, Kaipara and Waitemata harbours and out to the Mokehinau Islands, Waiheke Island and Great Barrier Island. The team prides itself on being the guardians of the water, ensuring they are safe and ready for commercial and recreational use while enforcing Maritime by-laws.

The Deckhand reports to the Skipper and helps carry out day to day Harbourmaster operations across the region. No day is the same as the crew recover wrecks, remove obstacles, maintain buoys, clean up oil spills and keep the Harbourmaster's fleet of boats in excellent condition. Our Deckhands will also work with the public to educate and promote responsible and safe water behaviour while also enforcing maritime laws and regulations.

The Harbourmasters Team is recognised as an essential service and operates 7 days a week. This role will be included on a rotating fortnightly roster which will include weekends and public holidays.

**This is a full-time, fixed term opportunity available from October 2024 to April 2025.**

The key attributes we are looking for are;
- Confident communicators who are keen in the maritime industry

- Hands on with a can-do attitude
- Ability to work well in a team and provide support where needed

At AT, we embrace inclusion and fully support building a diverse workplace where people come first and we feel safe, respected, valued and supported, inclusive of our differences. Our values are more than just words - they are integral to everything we do. **Manaakitanga**:
