Wellington City, New Zealand New Zealand Government Full time

**Mō te tūnga | About the role**

You will deliver the end to end procurement lifecycle with a strategic focus through the delivery of complex and exciting procurement and commercial projects, within the Capability and Logistics portfolio streams. You will ensure the minimisation of risk and achievement of public value; aligned to the NZDF's strategic objectives and outputs.

You'll be contributing to and supporting your key customers' objectives:

- **Logistics**: Deliver Today and Shape for Tomorrow; building a consolidated and focused logistics organisation that influences across NZDF within the Command environments - Maritime, Land, Air, Supply Chain, Equipment Management and Shared Services.
- **Capability**: Accountable for all capability development, delivery and management oversight across NZDF within the Land, Aerospace, Maritime and Information environments, through the Defence Capability Management System.

**Ngā pūkenga me ngā wheako | Skills and Experience**

We're looking for an outstanding team player with a proven track record in the delivery of procurement and commercial activities, who has demonstrated ability in engaging successfully with customers and key stakeholders. Our top priority is to recruit someone who is passionate and knowledgeable about procurement and has a focus on exceptional customer delivery.

You'll enjoy and excel at delivering exceptional results, putting the needs of the customer at the centre of everything you do, whilst aligning your deliverables to NZDF's strategic and operational objectives.

Your refined oral and written communication skills will ensure you're able to engage with a wide range of stakeholders with ease, and your written work will be to a high standard. You'll be agile, innovative, excited by challenges, decisive and have strong values, ethics and integrity. You'll have demonstrable experience in dealing well with pressure, remaining calm and being empathetic.

You'll have a sound understanding and demonstrable experience of the end-to-end procurement lifecycle process, the Government Procurement Rules and identify with best practice procurement across a wide range of categories, both direct and indirect; an advantage would be your knowledge and experience of procurement and commercial activity within the Capability and Logistics environments. Preferably you'll also have experience working within the public sector, although this is not essential.

If you tick the above boxes, come with solutions and ideas, have a holistic approach where you're focussed on outcomes, able to anticipate implications and build and maintain excellent working relationships with ease, then this could be your next challenge.
