Timaru, New Zealand Timaru District Council Full time

**The Role / Person**

Timaru District Council is on the hunt for a Communications Team Leader role to join our crew and help shape how we connect with our community.

You’ll be the voice behind the scenes - crafting clear messaging, advising leaders, managing media relationships, and helping us communicate meaningfully with our community. You'll also support projects across Council, and step into the Public Information Manager role when emergency management is needed.

This is a newly created role, leading a small but awesome team, so some leadership and mentoring experience is a must.

You will be part of a team that is doing some great stuff for our district, and you will play a big part in sharing those stories with our community

If you know your way around a press release, can calm a social media storm, and have a knack for explaining complex stuff in a simple and engaging way, please APPLY And yep, there's a bit of strategy, a lot of creativity, plenty of variety and a solid dose of leadership

**The District**

Timaru District is a thriving and innovative community. It is the central hub for the South Island, servicing a large agricultural heartland, with a growing economy that provides the import and export gateway for primary sectors. We boast a Top 10 most loved beach in New Zealand and have access to mountains, rivers and lakes, making Timaru an ideal destination for recreational, sporting and cultural pursuits.

Let’s not forget about that 7 minute commute to work

**The Organisation**

The Timaru District Council aims to enable democratic local decision-making and action by, and on behalf of communities, to promote the social, economic, environmental, and cultural well-being of its communities in the present and for the future. With around 400 staff, there are a diverse range of roles from front facing community to support and technical specialists.
