Auckland City, New Zealand Auckland Transport Full time

**Lead** the** development of AT initiatives on climate change**:

- ** Unique opportunity to make an impact; be part of the team reducing over 5% of NZ's greenhouse gas emissions**:

- ** Permanent opportunity, hybrid working options available**

**Te Whiwhinga mahi | The opportunity**

Auckland Transport is so much more than we might seem We have highly skilled innovators and amazing talent working on some of the grittiest challenges of our times. Our vision is fully supported by our leadership team: to provide Easy Journey's for a growing and vibrant Auckland, with investment in public transport, safety on the network, roads, cycling, walking paths and innovation all key factors contributing to our vision. Climate change is one of our key priorities as we work towards our vision.

Reporting into the Head of Transport Sustainability, as a Principal Sustainability Advisor you will lead the development of strategic advice on greenhouse gas emission reduction and the integration of sustainability into decision making across Auckland Transport.

This is a key role for AT, combining technical expertise and cross-functional collaboration to develop successful targets, policies, plans, and initiatives that reduce emissions and ensure climate change adaptation; and then supporting the business in implementation. The role works across AT's operations, suppliers and the wider transport system.

**Ko koe tēnei | About you**

We are looking for strong technical experience in climate change and sustainability, with breadth of experience more important than experience in the transport sector. You will have led the development and implementation of pragmatic and effective sustainability initiatives and strategic documents. You will also have experience across large organisations - providing specialist support, tracking progress, and winning the trust of colleagues and stakeholders.

Critical to being successful in this role is engaging and collaborating with others; this is the foundation to develop the targets, plans and initiatives.

A clear and concise communicator, you will have the ability to translate technical expertise into influential advice and practical initiatives and have the writing skills to provide high-quality reports and presentations. Experience writing Board papers or similar is advantageous.

**Ko wai mātou | About us**

At AT we embrace inclusion and fully support building a diverse workplace. To support this our Hybrid Working Initiative empowers our people to work flexibly in ways that work for them, our customers, and AT. All hybrid options are designed collaboratively with individual, and teams needs in mind. We aim to collaborate intentionally and create protected mind-space to be creative, we invite you to talk to us early in the process about how hybrid working might work for you. AT is also committed to creating a diverse, inclusive workplace where people belong, we feel safe, respected, valued and supported, regardless of our differences.

We're working to shape our city and provide transport choices for a growing, vibrant Auckland. Our people bring the best of local and international expertise and we take pride in a diverse team of forward thinking, passionate people providing innovative and realistic answers to the city's transport challenges. As catalysts for change, each and every one of our team has a pivotal role in moving Auckland forward. We have a plan, join us and help make it a reality **Check out the benefits of working at AT
