We are looking for a Social Researcher to join Auckland Council’s Research and Evaluation unit (RIMU). Our RIMU teams provide robust evidence for Auckland Council staff and elected members and thought leadership on emerging issues and opportunities.

Enjoy the diverse range of issues you will be working on, which may include population growth and change, quality of life, housing, transport, and climate change adaptation.

You will have plenty of room to develop your skills and maintain relationships across the council family, central government agencies, key stakeholders and the community.
