Wellington City, New Zealand New Zealand Government Full time

**Controller and Auditor-General**
- High-profile and significant role
- Requires highly developed judgement
- Impeccable integrity
- Gravitas

The Controller and Auditor-General is an Officer of Parliament with the significant constitutional role of safeguarding the financial integrity of New Zealand's parliamentary system of government. The Controller and Auditor-General gives Parliament and the public an independent view of how public organisations are operating (some 3,300 public entities). There are also international obligations as the Auditor-General of Niue and Tokelau, and the Secretary-General of the Pacific Association of Supreme Audit Institutions.

The Controller and Auditor-General is both the Auditor-General and the Chief Executive of the broader office, and has oversight of the delivery of all public entity audits via external and internal audit service providers. The Auditor-General is supported in the role by a Deputy Auditor-General appointed by Parliament.

You will have deep senior leadership experience in the areas of public management, accounting or law, and have a comprehensive understanding of our system of parliamentary government and the philosophies and practices underlying public sector financial and non-financial reporting. You will possess sufficient understanding of audit matters to exercise statutory responsibilities, and be an exceptional people leader and a person who brings gravitas and mana to the position.

You must possess independence of mind and the utmost integrity, display sound judgement, and have proven credibility and resilience. You are able to develop excellent relationships with a diverse range of stakeholders at the highest level. An understanding of te ao Māori and Te Tiriti o Waitangi in relation to the business of government will be important.
