About the role

We are seeking an experienced Senior Change Manager to join a shared transformation programme aimed at strengthening collaboration across three national institutions within government. This role is critical to supporting the introduction of a new operating model and driving a shift to a more collaborative way of working.

About the Role

This opportunity has arisen due to an internal secondment, requiring a capable and resilient professional to step in and manage building-related change activities. Working closely with a Change Lead, another Change Manager, and senior leaders, you will:

  • Conduct detailed impact assessments and translate findings into actionable treatments
  • Connect six workstreams to ensure alignment and delivery of the programme objectives
  • Manage change through a mātauranga Māori/te ao Māori lens, supporting inclusive and culturally aligned practices
  • Operate in a challenging yet rewarding environment, balancing the demands of a restructure and transformation programme.

What We’re Looking For
  • 5–10 years’ experience as a Senior Change Manager, ideally within large-scale transformation or multi-entity programmes
  • Resilience, adaptability, and the ability to hit the ground running in a high-performing team
  • Expertise in stakeholder engagement, impact assessments, and managing complex change initiatives
  • Familiarity with mātauranga Māori/te ao Māori principles and the ability to integrate them into change management processes.

Start Date

We are looking for someone to start before Christmas if possible, however for the right candidate an early January start may be possible.
If you are an experienced Change Manager ready to take on this exciting and meaningful challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
