Te Kaunihera aa Takiwaa o Waikato (Waikato District Council) is not your 'typical local government' employer; we are on a journey to become exceptional.
If you are looking for a new opportunity or want to expand your horizons - working collaboratively on mahi that is fast-paced and equally rewarding, not to mention being a part of shaping the future of the Waikato District, then this could be the role for you!
About the role We have an opportunity for a People Advisor to join our team on a fixed-term basis to cover parental leave.
You'll need to be that special person who can apply good process, is adept with legislation, and is also willing to push the boundaries and get seriously involved.
We are looking for someone who has a positive attitude towards problem-solving, enjoys a laugh, doesn't take themselves too seriously, and loves to be surrounded by knowledgeable people.
This won't be your first rodeo; we are looking for someone who has 3 - 5 years of experience in HR.
You'll have a solid knowledge base, can fit in with the team, and hit the ground running to support our organisation to be a great place to work - which will be easy because it already is!
If you can think outside the box, work across diverse landscapes, and have a good foundation of knowledge but want to experience more; then this is the role you need to apply for!
We are no boring Council; you will find us keen to innovate, have fun, and embrace the future of local government.
If you are on the fence about applying, be bold and courageous, turn off that inner critic - we are looking forward to meeting you!
