Principal Advisor, Māori Capability and Engagement

Ko te whāinga o Te Mana Arotake ko te hiki ake i te whakapono me te whirinakitanga o te iwi whānui ki te rāngai tūmatanui. Ko Te Mana Arotake te kaiarotake ā-ture i ngā tōpūtanga tūmatanui katoa, māna te rāngai tūmatanui o Aotearoa e tiaki kia noho tonu mai kei ngā pae ikeike i te ao katoa mō te whai whakapono. Kāore tētahi tōpūtanga anō, tūmatanui mai, tūmataiti mai rānei, me te pērā tana tirohanga whānui ki te katoa o te rāngai tūmatanui, i tērā o Te Mana Arotake.

The Office of the Auditor-General | Te Mana Arotakeaims to improve trust and confidence in the public sector. The Auditor-General is the statutory auditor of all public organisations, playing a major part in ensuring that New Zealand's public sector remains one of the most trusted in the world. No other organisation, public or private, has the overview of the whole public sector that the Office of the Auditor-General has.

Kua riro mā te rāngai tūmatanui ngā tini herenga hei tautoko i te Karauna i roto i tana hononga ki a Ngāi Māori, hei whakatutuki hoki i te Tiriti o Waitangi. Ko tā Te Mana Arotake he āwhina i te Pāremata kia noho papanga te rāngai tūmatanui ki ēnei takohanga.

The public sector has a range of obligations to support the Crown in its relationship with Māori and in upholding te Tiriti o Waitangi. At the Office of the Auditor-General, we help Parliament to hold the public sector to account for these obligations.

E kimi ana mātou i tētahi tangata ngākau hihiko kia whaitake te mahi i roto i te Tari, ā, puta noa hoki i te rāngai tūmatanui. I tēnei tūranga, ka whakarato koe i ngā tohutohu ā-hirikapo, ngā tohutohu mātanga ahurea, me te tautoko hoki i te Tari katoa ki te āwhina ki te hiki i te whai hua o ā mātou mahi, mā roto i ngā hononga whaitake ki a Ngāi Māori.

We're looking for someone who is motivated by the opportunity to make a difference both within the Office and across the public sector. In this role, you'll be providing intellectual guidance, expert cultural advice, and support across the Office to help increase the impact of our mahi through effective engagement with Māori.

Ka mahitahi koe me te Kaihautū o ngā Āheinga me ngā Hononga Māori ki te āwhina ki te ārahi i ngā kawenga o ia rā o te kaupapa o Kia Tika, tō mātou rautaki ao Māori, me te whakapiki i te mātatautanga puta i te Tari. Ka whai wāhi ki tēnei ko te toro atu ki ō hononga ake, hei āwhina ki te tuitui hononga hou i waenga i te Tari me ngā kiripānga Māori, me te tautoko i te kawenga o ngā tautoko ā-ahurea mō te Tari, otirā kia tika te kawenga o ngā tikanga Māori.

You'll work closely with the Director, Māori Capability and Engagement to help lead the day-to-day delivery of Kia Tika, our te ao Māori strategy, and increase capability across the Office. This will include drawing on your networks to help build relationships between the Office and Māori stakeholders and supporting the delivery of cultural support for the Office to ensure that tikanga is appropriately applied.

  • te māramatanga hōhonu ki te reo Māori me ōna tikanga;

  • ngā hononga kaha i roto i te ao Māori me te kāwanatanga, ā, ka whaimana hoki koe i ēnei ao;
  • ngā wheako hāponotia mō te whakawhanake me te whakatinana i te rautaki; ā
  • ngā wheako hāponotia mō te poipoi i te pūkenga huri noa i tētahi tōpūtanga matatini.

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

  • a thorough understanding of te reo and tikanga Māori;
  • demonstrated experience working with iwi, hapū, whānau, and Māori communities; 
  • strong relationships and credibility within te ao Māori and across government;
