**Salary range**: $ 92073 to $ 124570 depending on skills and experience

Kōrero mō te Tūranga - About the Role

Our Senior Advisers lead projects to develop, implement, maintain and review import health standards in accordance with international principles. This can involve:

- Extensive problem solving to recommend risk management decisions
- Communicating about scientific and sometimes complex information in simple terms, both verbal and written form
- Diverse engagement across Biosecurity New Zealand; external stakeholder engagement
- Analysis and interpretation of import and pest interception data.

There is a mix of reactive work, and longer time-frame project work.
Our Senior Advisers are also mentors to other staff and this is a key function of the role.

To be successful in this role, you will be able to demonstrate deep expertise in a similar role, a tertiary qualification in Horticulture or Biological Sciences, previous extensive experience in providing technical information for bilateral discussions and an understanding of biological and crop production systems.
Key to your success will be your excellent communication (both written and verbal) and relationship skills. An understanding of the biosecurity regulatory framework of New Zealand is essential.
You will also be an analytical thinker with strong problem-solving capabilities.

Mō tō mātou Rōpū - About the Team

Animal and Plant Health covers all the activities that contribute to reducing the likelihood that harmful pests and diseases will arrive at our border. The work we do here ensures the vast majority of biosecurity risk is managed offshore. Producers, exporters, exporting country competent authorities and importers all take action to comply with the requirements contained in our import health standards (IHSs) and Craft Risk Management Standards. These requirements, and the actions to verify compliance at the border, work together to provide New Zealand with an appropriate level of protection and reduce biosecurity risk to an acceptable level.
