We are also looking for someone who has the ability work fairly independently as well as part of a team, and brings in a good level of creativity and innovation to our space.

Key skills and experience include:

- Excellent relationship management skills
- A high level of comfort working with Whanau, Hapu and Iwi
- Have an understanding and appreciation of cultural issues and concerns in particular Tikanga Maori
- Technical knowledge and experience in Family and District Courts would be highly advantageous
- The ability to understand and communicate complex documents, including legislation, financial, numerical and business information.

**Ko wai mātou/**Who we are**

At Te Tāhū o te Ture - the Ministry of Justice, we're committed to working together for a fair and safe Aotearoa.

The Central Regional Kaiarahi team consists of 13 Kaiarahi, based from Manukau to Taupo and all those in-between. This position is based within the Hamilton District Court team of three other Kaiarahi, where you will have a close relationship with the Central Kaiarahi team and the wider National Kaiārahi team - teamwork and communication is a vital part of our team. The team work incredibly closely as a unit in our communities - being a bridge between them and our Judicial System.

**Joining Te Tāhū o te Ture means you will become part of an organisation that welcomes and supports people of all gender identities, ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, disabilities and religions.**

**Utu ā-tau/**Salary**

The full salary banding for this role is $81,128 - $112, 887. The appointing salary for this role will be between $81,128 and $93,832 based on skills and experience.
