Senior Fishery Officer
2 months ago
**Job Title**: Fishery Officer
**Role type**: Permanent, Full Time
**Location**: Gisborne
**Salary range**: $70,675 to $83,157 depending on skills and experience
Kōrero mō te Tūranga - About the Role
The working life of a Fishery Officer is varied and interesting. On any given day you may find yourself patrolling the beaches and boat ramps, interacting with the public, inspecting recreational and/or commercial fishing vessels, preparing a file for prosecution, taking part in a surveillance operation, gathering intelligence on fisheries offending, and/or analysing fisheries information. Developing and maintaining relationships with tangata whenua and stakeholder groups who use the fisheries resource is also an important aspect of this role. We are looking for someone with a passion for our marine environment and ensuring it is sustainably utilised and protected for future generations.
This role is challenging and varied, and this is what we expect from our frontline staff:
- This is not an 8am-5pm officed based role. We expect our staff to target risk and use their initiative to get out into the field, detect offending and take those responsible to task
- Work under the direction of your District Manager and with experience develop your own work plans and strategies dealing with the issues and priorities in our area
- Be responsible for the education, monitoring and inspection activities across the Fisheries sector
- Interpretate and enforce all relevant fisheries legislation within the fisheries compliance environment
- Detect, investigate, and take action against breaches of Fisheries legislation
- Collate, interpret, and monitor fishing related information and electronic data
- Effectively communicate and develop professional working relationships at all levels of the community and the fishing industry
If successfully shortlisted, you will need to attend an all-day assessment centre in Gisborne on 23rd October 2024.
If shortlisted for a final interview, you will also need to be able to attend this in person, in Gisborne 24th October 2024.

Mōu - About You
Fishery Officers will have an interest in the marine environment and some knowledge of how the New Zealand Fisheries framework system works.
