**He angitūtanga: The opportunity**
The Auckland Plan 2050 sets out a 30-year direction for Auckland that will ensure we can meet the opportunities and challenges of the future. It considers how we will address our key challenges of high population growth, ensuring prosperity is shared amongst all Aucklanders, and reversing environmental degradation.
We are looking for a Strategic Advisor who will work across the Auckland Council Group to monitor progress of the outcomes of the Auckland Plan. The six outcomes of the Plan are Belonging and Participation, Māori Identity and Wellbeing, Homes and Places, Transport and Access, Environment and Cultural Heritage and Opportunity and Prosperity.
You will be involved in a range of strategic projects. On any given day you could be:
- collecting and reviewing data
- preparing or contributing to written reports to council committees and senior leaders on the Auckland Plan’s progress
- providing advice to internal stakeholders of the Auckland Plan
- publishing Auckland Plan reports on the Plan website and ensuring data is current
- monitoring central government consultations that have an impact on Auckland
- supporting submissions to central government on reforms of strategic significance to Auckland
- supporting horizon and environmental scanning as part of our futures thinking programme to identify emerging issues and explore what is driving change
**He kōrero mōu: About you**
With a bachelor’s degree in public policy, economics, resource management or a related discipline, you are passionate about Auckland’s future, and have the drive to make a positive impact in your community.
You are looking for that next step to hone your problem solving and strategic skills. You are a deep thinker with the intellectual curiosity that thrives on challenges.
Other skills, attributes and experience that will enable you to be successful in this role are as follows:
- natural ability to think broadly, identify opportunities and issues, and make connections
- highly organised with the strong ability to plan, prioritise and meet deadlines
- attention to detail
- ability to build relationships across the council group
- ability to work collaboratively with others with diverse views, and find common ground
- an appreciation of local government’s political context
**Ngā āhuatanga kei a mātou: What we offer**
This is your opportunity to help shape Auckland's future by ensuring that the Auckland Plan 2050 remains at the forefront of council's strategic thinking and decisions. You will expand your network with a wide range of stakeholders across a broad portfolio of work. This bodes well for your future career
You’ll be joining a team of dedicated and respected experts, based in Auckland CBD. In addition to all the employee benefits, we work flexibly and provide opportunities for professional development.
