Auckland City, New Zealand Auckland Council Full time

Use your GIS skills to help tackle pressing climate challenges
- Work with other brilliant scientists and researchers
- Flexible working

**He angitūtanga: The opportunity**

Using your geospatial proficiency and scientific knowledge, work alongside other scientists, analysts, and researchers to deliver applied research projects in Auckland Council’s Research and Evaluation unit (RIMU).

Your analysis will focus on examining environmental changes and their impacts, to support risk and vulnerability assessments.

If you're passionate about utilising data to inform policy and strategy, this is the opportunity for you to make a tangible impact on environmental decision-making.

Some of the key initiatives you will be responsible for include:

- geospatial analysis of ecosystems to identify areas and habitats vulnerable to climate change
- participating in regional and national research programmes to understand carbon sequestration potential of different ecosystem types
- developing methods and approaches for marine and coastal habitat mapping
- developing methods and approaches to mapping and measuring landuse change

**He kōrero mōu: About you**

With a post graduate qualification in a relevant scientific discipline (environment, coastal/marine, hydrology, oceanography), you have demonstrated experience as an applied environmental scientist in a research field.

Other skills that will enable you to be successful in this role are as follows:

- experience in developing and executing geospatial research
- high-level proficiency in quantitative statistical analysis, interpretation and reporting

Equally important as your technical skills are your willingness to collaborate with others and your natural ability to communicate complex environmental data to a wide range of audiences.

**Ngā āhuatanga kei a mātou: What we offer**

Joining RIMU is great for your career and professional profile as you will continue to develop strong networks across the council group and the environmental sector. You will enjoy being part of a diverse team of brilliant scientists, researchers, analysts and specialists who work flexibly and have a passion for making a positive impact on Auckland’s future.
