**About the team**

The Electricity Authority Te Mana Hiko is an independent Crown entity that regulates the electricity market. We are a kaitiaki of electricity, and our purpose is to enhance New Zealanders' lives, prosperity, and environment through electricity.

We are focused on achieving an electricity system that is secure, resilient, and affordable, and provides more choices for consumers. Competition is critical to making this happen.

The electricity industry is at a pivotal moment, with the journey towards renewable energy sources and innovation reshaping how we operate. To meet these challenges and opportunities, we are evolving as an organisation - growing our capabilities, expanding our reach, and building a team ready to create a brighter, more sustainable future for Aotearoa.

Our focus is on making a difference through bold thinking, collaboration, and delivering value for the communities we serve.

**About the role**

**Why work with us?**

Electricity plays a critical role in the quality of our lives and businesses. As an electricity kaitiaki, our work is diverse, intellectually challenging, and contributes directly to our communities, economy, environment, and the nation as a whole.

We are a small but high-impact organisation where talented individuals can make a real difference. We foster an open, collaborative environment that encourages quality, innovation, ongoing learning, and knowledge sharing.

**We support a healthy work-life balance and offer a range of benefits to support our teams**:

- Competitive remuneration range, from $115,000 (plus 3% net KiwiSaver contribution)
- Flexible working options
- Individual and organisational support for training and development
