- Applied experience of Human Language Technology based solutions, preferably in an operational setting.
- Leadership experience with proven practice in leading and influencing people to connect with our vision and mission.
- Effective relationship management skills to engage across the organisation and with partners.

You need high energy and motivation as well as a collaborative, inclusive, and outcome focused approach. Utilise your concise communication style to cut a clear path through complexity.
To be eligible for employment within the NZIC you must have been a NZ citizen for at least 10 years. Alternatively you must hold a current NZ Residency Class Visa and ideally have been a citizen of UK, USA, Canada or Australia for at least 10 years.
