At IR everything we do starts and ends with people. We encourage curiosity, learning and innovation. In the internal communications team, our work influences a great culture which is grounded in our three organisational behaviours. These are whanaungatanga - making connections, valuing others experiences and being open minded, and manaakitanga - lifting the mana of others, being generous and valuing diversity, and mahi tika - having integrity and doing the right thing, doing what we say we’re going to and being accountable. We know that when IR people are highly engaged and understand our purpose and priorities, they provide the best service possible to all New Zealanders.

In internal communications we manage a range of IR-wide communications channels, including our intranet, Haukāinga, and messages for all IR people leaders.

Our relationships really matter to us. We work across the organisation,including at leadership level, so we join the dots and ensure risks are effectively managed. We play a critical role in crisis management, ensuring clear communication to all IR people around New Zealand.
