    A few things you should know about Northland Regional Council…

    Our work is ultimately about working together to care for our region’s incredible environment and many communities, matching our skills and resources with the vision and aspirations of our people.

    Here at the Northland Regional Council your work makes a difference to our community.


    Toitū te whenua, toitū te moana, toitū te tangata.

    If the land is well, if the sea is well, the people will thrive.


    The opportunity awaits…  

    Based in stunning Northland, this role will support the Land Management Team to build high trust relationships with Tangata Whenua as part of the Hill Country Erosion Programme.

    This will be a 3 year fixed term position.

    The aim of our land management work is to support landowners to improve land management practices (especially soil conservation) and ultimately improve water quality in our rivers, lakes and streams.

    We are seeking someone with a strong knowledge of Tikanga, a proven ability to make lasting connections with iwi and hapū around the region and who enjoys being part of a team focused on delivering improvements in freshwater quality and Te Taiao.

    Do you have what it takes?

    We are looking for someone who can bring the following to our diverse talent pool:

  • Proven abilities in tangata whenua and community engagement.

  • Experience working with or within hapū or community groups or experience / training in nga tikanga Maori, te reo Maori and te ao Maori.
  • Four plus years’ experience in a position or role of relevance.

  • Confidence and experience communicating and engaging on marae and with communities 
  • Understanding of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and local government obligations as a Treaty Partner 
  • Full driver’s licence.

  • Experience in use of Microsoft applications especially Word, Excel and Outlook.

  • We don't just want someone that  CAN  do the job, we want someone who has the  DRIVE to do a  GREAT  job and has a passion for what our organisation and values stand for.

    That's why at NRC, we understand that sometimes the right person doesn't ‘tick all the boxes'.

    If you don't fit the mould exactly, but truly believe you can help, then tell us.

    We'll consider it.

    What's in it for you?

    Just as you care about your community and environment, NRC cares about you and we are committed to the wellbeing of our people.

    Our team has grown a lot over the years, but our small organisation culture is still here.

    We celebrate our efforts as a team and recognise every individual for their contribution and dedication to their mahi.

    We understand the importance of flexibility, so we’re committed to alternative working arrangements for our people.

    We have a range of flexible work arrangements that we can consider to suit the varied lifestyles of our people.

    What's next?

    The work we do really makes a difference and if you are someone who is motivated to contribute to the management of Northland's environment, please
