The Intellectual Property Office of New Zealand (IPONZ) is the regulatory body that maintains the registers of intellectual property interests and contributes to international and national policy setting in relation to intellectual property systems and processes, as well as IP awareness and international engagement and cooperation.

This is a newly established role at IPONZ, and we are looking for a fantastic person to join our team.

Working together (mahi tahi), we all support each other to succeed in our roles.

The Manager IP Māori and IP Committees Secretariat provides high quality specialist strategic and pragmatic advice and programme design to ensure that IPONZ is well positioned to deliver on its part of the Crown’s responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and to deliver IP services to meet its regulatory obligations.

The role supports the development of the IPONZ Māori Capability and Engagement Strategy, and leads a new, strategic programme of work and initiatives to deliver on this commitment. The role supports IPONZ to enhance our capability to deliver on our responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

The role manages the IPONZ Māori Committees, ensuring all the committees are supported, engaged and effective in fulfilling their statutory roles. This includes leading the work to set up the new Māori Plant Varieties Committee.
The role is responsible for leading the IPONZ engagement with Māori, and provides specialist advice on how our services, interactions and engagement could be improved to better meet the needs and aspirations of Māori.

- Proven experience working in Māori policy and service delivery agency or partnership with Māori communities and organisations, especially those involved in Te Tiriti claims, are prioritised.
- Experience and achievement in working with senior leadership teams and providing high level strategic advice in a complex environment.
MBIE's goal is to create a resilient and high-performing economy that delivers real and ongoing quality of life for all New Zealanders.
We do this by working with others to create an environment that supports businesses to be more productive and internationally competitive, enables all New Zealanders to participate in the economy through improved job opportunities and by working to ensure quality housing is more affordable.

- Mahi Tahi - Better Together
- Māia - Bold and brave
- Pae Kahurangi - Build our Future
- Pono Me Te Tika - Own It

Our aspirations are echoed in our Māori identity - Hīkina Whakatutuki - which broadly means ‘lifting to make successful'.
MBIE recognises the partnership founded under Te Tiriti o Waitangi between Māori and the Crown and is committed to giving effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi. We will do this through enduring, meaningful and effective partnerships with iwi, Māori, other Māori groups/organisations and the Crown, as this is critical to enable economic and social development, both for Māori and for wider Aotearoa New Zealand. We are committed to continuing to partner with iwi in order to find new sustainable solutions to address long standing systemic and cross-cutting issues facing Māori and wider Aotearoa New Zealand and we are also committed to identifying opportunities for iwi to lead and creating an enabling environment for iwi to leverage these opportunities.
