About the Branch
The Workplace Relations and Safety Policy branch operates as a team and not as a hierarchy. You’ll be responsible for providing advice and will have plenty of opportunities to discuss it directly with Ministers. You’ll be part of a team filled with smart and committed policy professionals with excellent policy craft skills and domain knowledge. We have a positive and engaging work environment in which you can thrive while addressing some of the tricky policy issues that impact New Zealand’s businesses and workers.
Given the unique nature of our systems, you will enjoy working collaboratively and alongside others, including Māori. You’ll be up for leading a full and interesting work programme that spans multiple Ministers and attracts significant attention.
We are focused on developing our people, and with the wide variety of work across the branch there are often opportunities to work with other teams on projects that will help you grow and build your experience to achieve your career goals.
All of our teams work closely with our operational counterparts, so you’ll get good experience at making sure our policies are well implemented.
Some of our people work part-time or work flexibly, and we are really open to those options.
