Ko mātou tēnei | Who we are
Te Komihana Tauhokohoko | The Commerce Commission is Aotearoa New Zealand's competition, fair trading, consumer credit and economic regulatory agency. Our mission is to make New Zealanders better off by ensuring our markets work well and consumers and businesses are confident participants in those markets.
The Commission is going through an exciting period of growth, driven by increases in its functions, duties and powers.
We are looking for a Senior Adviser, Research and Engagement to join our Engagement team in either Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland) office or Te Whanganui-a-Tara (Wellington) office. We support flexible working, including working from home.

Mō te tūranga | About the role
The Senior Adviser, Research and Engagement is responsible for developing and delivering research and evaluation, and presenting evidence-based recommendations to inform organisation decision making and stakeholder engagement.
No two days will be the same, as you will be supporting colleagues across the Commission to gather the insights they need to inform their work. One of your first projects will be to help establish how we will measure whether we are successfully delivering against our new strategy and then commission any research required.

He kōrero mōu | About you
To be successful in this role you will have experience in commissioning research, analysing results, and translating findings into plain English. You will also have a good understanding of research and evaluation methodologies and tools. You will be confident in making recommendations, using evidence-based insights to inform work programmes and approaches. You will enjoy working with a wide range of people and can manage agency relationships effectively.

Te wāhi mahi | Working here
We are committed to our people's wellbeing. Any support needed is freely given, providing the opportunity for everyone to thrive. Our flexible working options are key to supporting that goal and our people have the technology they need to make it happen. We even offer a contribution to working from home set up costs. Our environment is inclusive, and our people know they are free to be their authentic selves at work and structure the way they work to suit their lifestyle.

Ka pēhea te tono mai | How to apply

Our recruitment process is fair, inclusive and free from bias and we encourage our applicants to let us know if we can make it more user friendly for them. We are an equal opportunity employer. We value diverse perspectives and the contribution every one of our people makes to our culture. Put simply - you can be yourself here.
