Job Description

Te Wero – The Challenge

Join Our Team as an Executive Projects Advisor

Are you passionate about making a meaningful impact through expert-level planning, legal, or property-related matters? As a pivotal member of the Chief Executive Office, you will play a crucial role in providing operational & strategic advice and guidance on complex Council projects to senior management, elected officials, and key stakeholders.

I ā koe – About You

How You'll Contribute to Our Mission

We have some really big important projects to deliver for Council which span right across the functions of the organisation. In this role, you will provide expert assistance and advice on these high-profile projects to Council’s Chief Executive, Group Managers, and Elected Members.

You’ll be focusing on:

  • Subject Matter Expertise: You will have a background in planning, legal or property development to be the go-to authority on high- priority and high-magnitude Council projects, navigating their multi-faceted complexity with finesse and proficiency. This will enable you to provide expert analysis, undertake research, and develop business cases, informal briefings, and reports.


  • Project Oversight and Advice: Ensure clear delivery roadmaps, robust governance structures, and effective risk management strategies are in place to drive project success. You also won’t be afraid to get stuck in, roll up your selves, and do what it takes to get the job done.


  • Stakeholder Engagement: Foster strong relationships with Elected Members, partners, and stakeholders, including government agencies, community groups, and private sector organisations. This will enable you to gain their technical expertise, cooperation, and coordinated delivery on cross-Council work.


  • Engagement: Contribute to public consultation processes, representing the Council on external working parties and groups.


If you're ready to take on a challenging yet rewarding role where your expertise will drive impactful change, we encourage you to apply. Join the Chief Executive’s Office to help us in shaping the future of the Far North District and making a lasting difference in our community.
