You will lead and manage people (veterinarians) at a regional level and will place a strong emphasis on developing staff capability to ensure delivery of high quality and nationally consistent technical and operational services within the Establishments Team. The Palmerston North Establishments Team Manager supports Verification Services veterinarians based at meat processing facilities in the lower North Island from Wellington in the South to Bulls in the North and Dannevirke in the East.

A high level of versatility and a strong understanding of what it takes to enable meat processing facilities (Establishments) to own their compliance to ensure success is vital. Your positive engagement and that of your team will be essential in achieving success. Also important will be your ability to work collaboratively with other parts of Verification Services to deliver appropriate training, and support of staff to ensure consistently high levels of service provided.

You will:

- Support the National Manager Establishment in the delivery of the national strategy and implementation programme in alignment with the Verification Services Leadership Team business development plans.

- Provide leadership and management to all staff by ensuring robust processes for communication, engagement, learning and development and performance management are implemented.
- Manage all resources and outcomes through the effective implementation of organisational processes and procedures (health and safety, recruitment, financial, planning, monitoring, and measuring, reporting)

**About You - Mou**

This role would suit someone with a Veterinary or science background who has solid people and cost centre management experience.

To be successful for this role, you will:

- Have a registerable veterinary or science based tertiary qualification
- Have experience developing and coaching staff
- Be able to make business decisions that have a financial impact and an understanding of cost recovery
- Experience managing relationships and consulting with an assortment of external stakeholders

You must have a current full New Zealand driver licence (not temporary, learner, or provisional) or equivalent full foreign drivers licence, and any endorsements required for the type of driving you'll be doing.

**About the Team** - **Mo to matou Ropu**

Reporting to the National Manager Establishments, this role sits within the Verification Services directorate in the New Zealand Food Safety business unit. The Palmerston North Establishments team covers a geographic area between Wellington, Bulls and Dannevirke, and includes eight processing plants and twenty-three veterinarians, either based onsite or working as relievers. You will work closely with other Team Managers nation-wide as well as with your team members to deliver programmes and provide peer support and professional development

The work of the team directly contributes to MPIs strategic objectives of Prosperity, Visible Leadership and Protection. MPI's veterinarian verifiers are at the forefront of food safety in the export red meat sector, which generates around $13b of revenue annually. Our vets also have key roles in animal welfare and biosecurity response plans. We engage with the rural community through our on farm verification program.

The region encompassed by this role includes a variety of landscapes from the agricultural hubs and regional towns of the Manawatu and Tararua regions, to the larger city of Palmerston North and the nation's capital, Wellington. There are coastal landscapes and backcountry bush an easy step away and a couple of hours travel will take you to the central plateau of the North Island famous for volcanos and snow fields

**About Verification Services**

At Verification Services, our core purpose is to deliver independent, cost-effective, and high-quality verification, certification, inspection, and clearance programs that meet all regulatory requirements. We're committed to providing a range of food safety and biosecurity verification and certification services to at least 2,000 processing companies across New Zealand, including the meat, seafood, game, and dairy industries.
