    Description

    All about the job

    It is an exciting time for Resource Management planners with lots of changes at both the regional and central government level, all of which need policy analysis, submissions, evidence and potentially court work.

    The Proposed Porirua District Plan aims to weave the requirements of the Resource Management Act with the Council's strategic directions, focusing on four key areas:

    • Protecting the health of Te Awarua-o-Porirua Harbour and its catchment through investment, advocacy, and regulation
    • Building a low-carbon city and addressing climate change challenges proactively
    • Creating thriving communities where everyone can be safe and healthy – at home, work, or play
    • Keeping tamariki and rangatahi at the heart of our city

    We are seeking a Planner to join our team for a fixed term of two years. The ideal candidate will be a capable and driven planner of any level of experience – from recently graduated to an experienced Senior Planner.

    You will work in a small and experienced team of senior and principal planners who can offer mentoring to fast-track your career in district planning. Your primary responsibilities will include:

    • Working in partnership with Ngāti Toa on district planning
    • Assisting and/or overseeing major new plan changes, including leading engagement
    • Supporting and advising on regional processes, including those coming out of Greater Wellington Regional Council and the Wellington Regional Leadership Committee
    • Providing analysis and advice on central and regional government policy changes and how to respond
    • Supporting the Council's climate change response, including implementation through the District Plan

    All about you

    This will be a career-defining role with a competitive salary on offer to recognize the skills and experience you bring. We are looking for someone who is driven to stay up-to-date and informed of changes to the legislation.

    You'll also have a good understanding of community networks and internal partnerships and demonstrate that you:

    • Have experience working with the Resource Management Act, anywhere from novice to 7 years' experience;
    • Have a solid understanding of local authorities and the district plan development process;
    • Thrive working effectively in a small, hardworking, and dynamic team;
    • Have excellent written communication skills and are comfortable with public speaking and leading meetings or workshops;
    • Have excellent analytical, conceptual thinking, and problem-solving abilities OR bring a constructive, inquisitive approach to problem solving and resolving issues;
    • Have a strong relationship management focus that inspires trust and confidence and builds productive relationships with key stakeholders and decision-makers
