Auckland City, New Zealand New Zealand Customs Service Full time

**Lead teams that are contributing to help keep our communities safe.**

**About this role - Mō tēnei tūranga mahi**

As Chief Customs Officer in the Customs Investigations Unit (CIU) you'll lead Drug investigation teams across operations and at a strategic level within Auckland Customs investigative operations. You will be responsible for coaching and leading a group of team leaders and technical experts.

The Customs investigations teams are tasked with investigating serious border related criminal offending relating to the importation and exportation of controlled drugs.

The salary for this role is $103,053 - $130,010 plus an allowance of $16,109 for working unpredictable hours.

**About you - Ko wai koe**

The position requires extensive knowledge and experience in the investigations environment as well as effective and confident decision making, prioritisation and the ability to build and maintain the relationships required to achieve strategic objectives.

You'll use your experience as a people leader to provide clear leadership, ensuring teams have the skills and knowledge to deliver the outcomes required. Building and enhancing effective relationships with internal and external stakeholders is important, including other law enforcement and border management partners, with a view to improving border response and service quality.

As part of the recruitment process, you will need to obtain and maintain a Top Secret level national security clearance. You must have a background history that is verifiable and can be assessed as appropriate by the New Zealand Security Intelligence Service towards a recommendation of suitability for security clearance at a higher level.

- Be a New Zealand Citizen or New Zealand Permanent Resident
- Have resided continuously in New Zealand for the last 10 years*
- Must have a clear Police record and be able to obtain an Organisational Security clearance.
- Hold a full New Zealand drivers licence.

You will also be asked to complete a medical check and drug test.
- (*) If you are a New Zealand Citizen or New Zealand Permanent Resident who has resided in New Zealand for the last 10 years but have been absent from New Zealand for periods of 6-9 months within the past 10 years, preferably in one or more of the following countries: either Australia, Canada, UK or the USA then you may still meet the requirements for a 'secret' clearance. You will be required to provide overseas Police certificates for these periods spent outside of New Zealand._

If shortlisted, you will be asked to complete online psychometric testing.

**Applications close at 5pm on **Friday 18**th** October 2024. If shortlisted, interviews will be held on 30**th** October 2024.**
