- If you’re passionate about seeing quality advice in action - this is the opportunity
- Join a supportive and collaborative team

**He angitūtanga: The opportunity**

The Community Directorate in Auckland Council is responsible for supporting elected members to make investment decisions on Tāmaki Makaurau’s parks and open spaces, community services and community facilities. The way our kaimahi (staff) support elected members to make these decisions is through providing robust, well-constructed, timely advice.

As part of the Advisory Unit Lead Team, the Advisory Lead role supports the directorate to develop and deliver this advice in a range of ways. This could include advice construction or review of advice (reports, memos and presentations), communication of performance insights to inform quality improvements, and strategic relationship management to support quality advice capability uplift.

**He kōrero mōu: About you**

You’ll bring a blend of experience in working with elected members or in a stakeholder/relationship management role, along with experience in the policy or advisory space.

To be successful in this role you will also:

- Have excellent written and spoken communication skills, ideally including knowledge of Auckland Council’s Quality Advice Standards and Our Voice style guide
- Be confident and adept at building effective working relationships with kaimahi at all levels (senior leadership through to operational teams)
- Be a problem solver who is adaptable and results driven but also able to keep the strategic goal and bigger picture in mind
- Have a penchant for continuous improvement and a curiosity about how things work
- Be a team player who is comfortable working to deadlines

**Ngā āhuatanga kei a mātou: What we offer**

In return for your expertise, you’ll be part of a team of passionate professionals who have a strong Tikanga (set of values). You’ll have the support of an experienced team with a strong vision for growth and be part of delivering work that makes a difference for the experience of Auckland’s communities. You will be in a team and organisation that supports and nurtures its people.

As a high-performing organisation, we place a high value on the quality of work done where achievements are regularly celebrated and recognised, embracing the culture of positivity, fun and passion into the workplace.
