Details of the offer

We are carers for Northland's environment and community.
Are you one of us?
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.
From healthy waters, protecting our native taonga, developing meaningful relationships with tangata whenua, to creating resilient and adaptable communities in a changing climate.
Here at the Northland Regional Council your work makes a difference to our community.
Toitu te whenua, toitu te moana, toitu te tangata.
If the land is well, if the sea is well, the people will thrive.
The opportunity awaits… Northland Regional Council is looking for an experienced Maritime Officer to join its Maritime Team, based out of our Whangarei Office.
You'll be part of a team that looks after the navigational safety services around Northland's extensive coastline and harbours from Mangawhai to Parengarenga on the east coast and round to the Hokianga and Northern Kaipara harbours on the west coast.
The diversity of work includes incident management, moorings management, oil pollution response, bylaw enforcement, and safe boating education, and on-water skipper services to other council departments.
You'll act as a skipper or deckhand for Council vessels when required.
Training will be provided where required in council specific systems and oil spill response.
Do you have what it takes?
We are seeking someone who is motivated about the Northland regional coastal environment – someone who wants to be able to look back on each day's work with satisfaction and gets pleasure from helping people and places thrive.
You will be a team player with excellent interpersonal skills and a high standard of computer literacy.
This is a hands-on role with a healthy mix of on-the-water work and office time.
You must have proven boat handling skills along with practical maritime skills preferably gained in a commercial maritime role.
We are looking for someone who can hit the ground running to support the team in the wide range of roles the team is involved with.
You will have at least an ILM, SRL or similar maritime qualification as a minimum and have extensive knowledge and experience of working on the water and with boats.
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.

What's next?
