**Ko wai mātou | About Us**:
Whaikaha - Ministry of Disabled People's mandate is to provide leadership on policy settings relating to disabled people; and to transform the disability services through our commissioning work.
We are committed to strengthening relationships and working in partnership with disabled people, tāngata Whaikaha Māori, Pacific disabled people and whānau to provide them with a voice and support them to realise their own potential and aspirations.
Whaikaha presents an exciting opportunity to make a real difference. The call for “Nothing about us, without us” is an integral part of our operation.
Whaikaha has just completed its organisation design and is making some targeted investment in key areas to enable its mandate.
Senior Advisor Ministerial and Executive Services

**Mō tēnei tūranga mahi| About the Role**:
The Whaikaha Ministerial and Executive Services team, requires the support from two experienced Senior Advisors. You will have an extensive knowledge in the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA). You will be able to manage OIA requests and be proficient in drafting responses, of OIAs, general and Chief Executive Correspondence. You may also be required to help manage Written questions, answers and statements (WPQs).
From 1 October 2023, the MaES team will have the above services transitioned from host agency, MSD, to Whaikaha. As we will be working with relatively new processes and systems, it is critical that we have experienced Senior Advisors. You will be responsible for all tasks required to successfully deliver appropriate responses to these time sensitive requests.
You will actively contribute to the Ministerial and Executive Servicing, including Ministerial Briefings; Ministerial and Executive correspondence; Official Information Act and Privacy requests; Parliamentary questions; Select Committee processes; the proactive release of information; and Ombudsman and Privacy Commissioner enquiries.

Both roles are fixed term until 31 March 2024.

**Ngā Pūkenga me ngā wheako i | What you will bring**:
You will enjoy staying updated on trends, issues, and essential processes, such as relevant laws and statutory reporting obligations. You will thrive on upskilling others because you will be responsible for training and advising other Whaikaha kaimahi on the team's activities.
You have extensive experience in working with senior management, processes and systems in a government organisation. You also have proven leadership, influencing and decision-making skills.
You also have the ability to develop positive relationships and credibility at a high level in a complicated context, as well as work collaboratively with peers and stakeholders.
