Te Haeata/The Opportunity
Are you motivated by driving positive change in Aotearoa New Zealand's courts and wider justice system to provide people with faster, easier access to justice? If so, we want to hear from you!
We have an Advisor (Level 2) role available in the Courts Stewardship Team , where you will work with others to resolve complex and challenging issues, and manage relationships with key stakeholders. The Courts Stewardship Team was set up in 2022 to develop, test, and implement a best practice approach to regulatory stewardship in the courts and tribunals systems. The team plays a role in capacity building to grow the Ministry's stewardship capability, connecting with the inter-agency regulatory stewardship community, and running regular Regulatory Systems Amendment Bills.
O pukenga/Skills and Experience
We are looking for a candidate who can demonstrate:
Relationship skills : Are you self-aware and trustworthy, with a willingness to learn from others? Can you build and maintain relationships with diverse internal and external stakeholders? Do you care about helping people and have a strong sense of integrity?
Problem solving skills : Can you think analytically and critically? Do you find complex problems interesting, and have a knack for solving them? Can you take a systems perspective, see the bigger picture and make links between different topics and areas of work?
Communication skills : Are you an excellent communicator? Can you write clearly, in a way that simplifies complex information?
Advisory skills : Do you ask questions to improve your understanding? Do you take initiative to go beyond the immediate task, and apply sound judgement? Do you have knowledge of machinery of Government and public policy?
A legal or courts background, or experience with regulatory stewardship or legislative processes would be an advantage but is not required.
