Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand QEII National Trust Full time

Career Overview

We are an independent charitable organisation that partners with private landowners to protect sites on their land with covenants.

A covenant is an agreement between us and a landowner to protect land forever.

The landowner continues to own and manage the protected land, and the covenant and protection stays on the land, even when the property is sold to a new owner.

Our partnerships have created a growing network of over 5,000 protected areas throughout Aotearoa.

These covenants protect more than 190,000 ha of private land and play a key role as a refuge for some of New Zealand's rarest and most endangered biodiversity and ecosystems.
