Christchurch, New Zealand MeridianPowershop (Dual Brand) Full time

**Company Description**
Meridian is the largest producer of renewable electricity in Aotearoa and we strive to deliver clean energy for a fairer and healthier world. We only generate electricity from 100% renewable resources - wind, water and sun, because we believe that’s the best way forward for our planet and our communities. And, we’re doing what we can to help Aotearoa reduce their carbon emissions and supporting others in our communities to do the same.

Powershop started out by offering something different. We put the power into the hands of our customers by building an online Shop for power that’s simple, rewarding and fun. We're on a mission to offer the best-in-class digital experience for our customers and continue to give our customers the tools and information that they need to be in control.

This is a unique role where you’ll get the best of both worlds and get to work across two leading brands: Meridian and Powershop. And while we do things a little differently, our values and fundamental principles are very similar. You’ll learn the ins and outs of both brands, double the fun

Together, Meridian and Powershop retail electricity to more than 365,000 homes, businesses and farms across New Zealand. Now that’s a pretty impressive combo
**Job Description** What you’ll be doing**

This a newly created role for the business, providing lots of diversity, independent ownership and the ability to drive change and make this role your own

You'll be working with the marketing team and wider business to design content that supports business objectives, ensuring our brands present a consistent experience and tell engaging stories across all content marketing activities and brand touchpoints. As well as driving content strategy, writing briefs and reviewing creative and content proposals from external partners, you'll also be a hands-on copywriter - creating marketing content, messaging and collateral, including but not limited to, newsletters, video scripts, blogs, social media posts, website, end-customer interaction and brochures.

You’ll be the driving force to help us build and execute our content strategy, creating captivating long and short form pieces for marketing campaigns and products.

**What you’ll bring**
- Previous experience working within Marketing, ideally within a corporate environment
- Experience in content creation
- Strong copywriting skills and ability
- A degree or study in Marketing would be ideal
- Ability to use analytics tools (for example, Google Analytics or Hotjar) to inform content creation, evaluation, and updating and an in-depth knowledge of social media platforms and emerging trends

**Why join us?**

We’re a great place to work with plenty of opportunities and career development for those that want it. We value and live by three ‘How to Be’s’: ‘be gutsy’, working together by ‘being in the waka’ and doing the right thing by ‘being a good human’.

We embrace diversity and inclusion and ensure that everyone feels like they belong, are welcomed, feel valued, and feel comfortable to bring their whole selves to work. We want all our people to be the best that they can be, so we make sure that there’s room for everyone to be exactly who they are. We believe that fun is good for you, and we make sure that our office vibe reflects that. We support each other and celebrate our successes.

Sustainability sits firmly in our DNA - both socially and environmentally - and we’re doing what we can to help Aotearoa reduce their carbon emissions and we’re helping support others in our generation communities to do the same.

**What we can offer you**

We value work/life balance so our WFH and flexible work options (where possible) make things easier for you and your whānau. We also offer:

- an attractive and competitive salary package that’s reviewed annually, performance-incentive plus discounts from a number of partnerships
- Southern Cross Healthcare - Wellbeing one insurance, funded scheme for eligible employees to give you that extra peace of mind
- enhanced leave provisions: three company paid days (over the holiday period), enhanced parental leave and options to buy up to 12 days additional leave
- life, trauma and income protection insurance (which we hope you won’t need)
- enhanced KiwiSaver contributions
- access to the Meridian employee share scheme
- excellent learning and development opportunities, we want you to be the best version of yourself and will help you get there
- award winning wellbeing programme that provides support whenever and wherever you need it
- employee discounts off your power with Meridian or Powershop, every bit counts
- a one-off $400 payment to support your work from home set-up (if needed)
