Successful applicants are required to work well within a small team in a variety of sea, land and air environments.

The key activity for the Customs Maritime Unit is to respond to any risk to the New Zealand maritime border. This involves; patrol; surveillance; and searching, detecting offences and preparing prosecution files. Regularly working alongside other agencies such as the NZ Police, MPI and the NZDF.

The Customs Maritime Unit provides coverage 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.

This is not a nine-to-five job. You'll be on the water for long periods and you'll work on a roster, which means weekend work and odd hours when required. We understand the importance of life outside of work.

The salary range for this role is $75,971 - $96,013 plus an allowance of $15,640.

On an annual basis, Customs Maritime Officers are required to pass a comprehensive medical assessment and pass a fitness test to the following standard;
- Beep test to 5.1 standard and 10 press-ups
- 50-metre swim in overalls, tread water for 3 minutes.

**Security Clearances**:
You must have a background history that is verifiable and can be assessed as appropriate by the New Zealand Security Intelligence Service towards a recommendation of suitability for security clearance at a higher level. Already having Secret clearance is a benefit, but not a requirement.

Due to the nature of Customs work you must have a clear Police record. Successful applicants are also required to pass a medical assessment and drug test and must hold a full NZ Drivers' licence.

**Hours of Work**:
This position is a full-time position (2088 hours per annum) worked flexibly, within a rostered work pattern, or flexible hours, to enable coverage for 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
