Based in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington or Christchurch What you will be doing: You'll be working with some of the most talented and high performing research and applied science teams in the science sector, and collaborating with NIWA's biophysical, economic and cultural scientists to contribute environmental social science expertise to a diverse range of research and consultancy projects.
The position can be based at any of our four main sites, and you could be working on projects throughout New Zealand and potentially the Pacific Islands.
The position offers the opportunity to become a key member of NIWA's Social Sciences & Economics capability.

What we will offer: Varied, challenging and important work with talented colleagues in an organisation devoted to environmental science.
A high performing organisation with a focus on employee development and wellbeing.
Generous leave entitlements and employee benefits.
About us: NIWA is a dynamic mission-led research and applied science organisation and New Zealand's largest and pre-eminent provider of climate, freshwater and marine science.
NIWA aims to guide the nation to a prosperous and resilient future by growing the economy, protecting people, assets and ecosystems, and enabling effective responses to environmental change.
NIWA offers a flexible workplace environment with an "office first" culture.
We believe teamwork and collaboration happen best when our people have the opportunity to interact in person - that's where the magic happens
We don't expect perfection in our candidates - if you think you have what it takes, but don't meet every point referenced in the position description, please still get in touch
NIWA promotes the importance and value of an inclusive and diverse workforce, including the Rainbow Community, and pride ourselves on being a family-friendly and supportive workplace.
