About the team
Join a team that's all about reducing harm to our clients and ensuring that funds directed to helping New Zealanders make it to those in need.
The Intelligence and Integrity Insights Unit advises MSD's business units to ensure that our policies, products and services are resistant to fraud, accidental non-compliance and MSD error.

- Research interventions to mitigate flaws in our systems
- Help communicate these risks to other business units using clear and persuasive language
- Work collaboratively with other business units to understand their risks and develop potential mitigations

**Who we're looking for**:
We have traditionally hired intelligence analysts to these roles, but will consider applicants that can demonstrate the following characteristics:

- The ability to write persuasively and in plain English

**It would be an advantage if you had**:

- Experience in regulatory compliance, fraud prevention or a related field
- Data analysis skills

**Salary range**: $83,011.00 - $101,458.00

**Closing date**: 5 March 2023

Joining us
Joining MSD means being part of a whānau that celebrates the diversity each individual represents. We show manaaki, we care about the wellbeing and success of people and want everyone to thrive, and be who they are in a supportive and inclusive working environment. We work together to make a difference for communities while doing the right thing with integrity. We are a Treaty partner committed to strengthening relationships with Māori, Hapū, Iwi and communities to realise their own potential and aspirations.
MSD has a COVID-19 vaccination policy that encourages, but does not require, employees to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and its variants, unless the role is identified as requiring vaccination at the time.
