**Join a great team dedicated to making a positive contribution**:

- **Join a supportive, fun, and diverse sport and rec team**:

- **Permanent Full-time role**

**He angitūtanga: The opportunity**

**Sport & Recreation Lead**

Auckland's unique environment, with a diverse and growing population and an expansive sport and recreation facility network (including 2,000+ community sport and recreation groups, 4,000+ parks and 500+ schools), provides many opportunities for Aucklanders to get active.

In this role you will:

- Provide advice and guidance to community sport and recreation organisations in respect to facility planning, development and funding
- Produce reports and memos that provide quality advice to elected members
- Support administration of the sport and recreation facility grants programme.
- Develop project briefs and funding agreements to ensure council’s strategic and investment outcomes are secured
- Establish and foster strategic partnerships to achieve more than we can acting alone
- Support the development of relevant local and regional sport and recreation strategies, plans and policies to ensure an aligned approach

**He kōrero mōu: About you**

We're looking for critical thinkers with experience in building partnerships, facility development, policy implementation, contract management and/or network planning. A relevant tertiary qualification is expected, and good knowledge of the South Auckland sport and recreation community is desirable.

On any given day you might be meeting with community volunteers, regional or national sports organisations, schools, Ministry of Education, Sport New Zealand, Regional Sports Trusts, elected members and council staff.

Ideally, you will be able to:

- Provide quality advice and guidance to elected members and community groups in respect to sport and recreation facility planning and development.
- Provide pre-allocation and post-allocation services to deliver sport and recreation grant funding initiatives in support of Auckland’s sport and recreation facility network.
- Provide leadership to sport and recreation sector development initiatives to increase participation and improve health and wellbeing of Aucklanders.

Naturally, you'll be a team player with excellent communication skills and above all, a passion for sport and recreation.

**Ngā āhuatanga kei a mātou: What we offer**

This is a great opportunity to join a fun, highly motivated team with a track record of delivery and collaboration.

Work on a variety of challenging projects which will keep your work fresh and exciting.
- As such applicants will be required to undergo police vetting and a drug test prior to commencing employment.
- Auckland Council strongly encourages our employees to be fully vaccinated.
