Rotorua, New Zealand Rotorua District Council Full time

Position Description

We're looking for a communications superstar to join our team

We have a permanent, full-time vacancy for an experienced communications advisor.

You'll be joining a busy, friendly team who support the strategic direction of Rotorua Lakes Council, working with staff delivering services, projects, initiatives and work programmes.

Our organisation is outcomes-focussed, values-based and proudly bicultural, delivering on a long-term vision and strategic direction to bring about positive change and progress for the Rotorua rohe and its residents.

At the same time we're involved in addressing key social challenges in our community and partnerships with iwi, Central Government and community stakeholders are key to how we work to achieve positive outcomes.

We're looking for energetic, creative, strategic communicators who will offer fresh ideas, like a challenge, are team players and enjoy working in a collaborative, often fast-paced environment.

Council communications work is varied and no two days are the same so we need competent, strong and versatile communicators who are committed, can get the mahi done, and are calm and focussed under pressure.

This role will work across the organisation and with external stakeholders if/as required, and will be responsible for providing sound advice and delivering high quality communications aligned to the vision and direction of Council.

You'll also contribute to public engagement and Council's Civil Defence role and responsibilities.

Te Kaunihera o nga Roto o Rotorua (Rotorua Lakes Council) is committed to working in partnership with Te Arawa, our local iwi. We aspire to being a bicultural organisation and we value staff who speak te reo Maori, have an appreciation of Maori values, and a working knowledge of tikanga Maori.

Any offer of employment from the Rotorua Lakes Council will be conditional upon you being fully vaccinated and providing suitable evidence of vaccination or medical exemption.
