We are looking for a contractor at the Principal Advisor level (or experienced Senior Advisor) to assist with developing risk-based monitoring and reporting for our climate change and environment sector client.

 

Ideally you will have a background in developing risk frameworks and developing risk-based monitoring and reporting for senior leaders. Subject matter expertise would be a bonus but is not essential. Experience serving and producing reporting materials for governance boards would also be a bonus.

 

Part of the role will also be to help support and uplift risk capability within a team to enable the team to take forward the risk-based monitoring and reporting in the long term. Ideally the successful candidate would be able to help make templates, guidance etc to future proof the work.

 

We are preferably looking for a Wellington based contractor, but we would also consider remote for the right candidate.

 

If you are an experienced public sector professional looking for your next contract or just keen to chat about the local contract market then we’d love to hear from you.

  

As New Zealand’s only specialist public sector recruitment firm, The Johnson Group represents a wide range of clients from social to regulatory to economic sectors. We are always keen to meet candidates, talk about their career aspirations, share market insights and see how we can assist in their next career move!
