Head of PMO and Change Management
About the Opportunity Shape the future of enterprise delivery for one of New Zealand's leading health insurers. A key leadership role in a growing PMO team. Our client has invested heavily in its future. A new CEO, a refreshed strategy and significant investment in technology have created an opportunity for an experienced PMO leader to help shape how an entire organisation delivers change. This isn't about maintaining the status quo. It's about building the capability that allows an organisation to deliver confidently for years to come. What You’ll Bring Reporting to the Chief Corporate Services Officer and working closely with the Executive Leadership Team, you'll become the person who provides visibility across strategic initiatives, challenges priorities when needed, and ensures technology, people and business change move together. You'll inherit an established PMO and lead its next stage of maturity. Strengthening governance, portfolio planning, resource management and enterprise change capability while continuing to develop a capable delivery team. The programme ahead is substantial. Over the next 12 months you'll help guide the delivery of major technology initiatives including platform consolidation, API development, CRM transformation, a modern data platform and significant product simplification that will improve both member experience and operational effectiveness. We're looking for someone who has successfully led enterprise PMOs before. Someone comfortable operating at and supporting the wider Executive while remaining hands on enough to jump into delivery when required. You'll bring credibility, commercial judgement and the confidence to ask difficult questions before projects become problems. You'll probably have experience leading complex technology programmes, building governance that enables rather than slows delivery, and helping organisations become better at managing change, not simply projects. Experience within insurance, financial services or another regulated environment would be advantageous, although candidates from other complex technology environments are encouraged to apply. Why This Opportunity? Our client is large enough to undertake meaningful transformation, yet small enough that good ideas don't disappear into layers of bureaucracy. The Executive Leadership Team is genuinely invested in building organisational capability, and this role will have a visible seat at the table as the business continues its transformation journey.

Business Development & Sales Manager
About the Opportunity Join SPIRAC, a specialist engineering business designing and manufacturing screenings, grit and biosolids handling and outloading solutions for municipal wastewater and industrial applications. This is a true standalone NZ remit, no local office and no NZ-based team, so you’ll be trusted to run your territory with maturity, pace, and good judgement. You’ll be the face of SPIRAC in New Zealand, owning relationships, opportunity development, and customer coverage across both islands. While you’re autonomous day-to-day, you’re not on your own: you’ll collaborate closely with sales engineers and project teams in Australia (Perth/Sydney/Victoria) who support quoting, technical submissions, and delivery. Build on solid groundwork already in place; you’ll add value in conversations and develop opportunities through relationships and insight. Work with a broad customer base: major contractors, councils/wastewater authorities, and industrial clients, with most activity through tier 1 contractors. Proactively monitor tender portals to identify upcoming opportunities, then coordinate internally to progress submissions. This role will have a strong focus on wastewater treatment plant projects, working with clients across municipal infrastructure and water/wastewater environments. There will also be exposure to industrial applications, including large-scale processing and manufacturing environments such as dairy, food production and other industrial sites where wastewater, solids handling or process waste solutions are required. What You’ll Bring Experience in B2B solution sales / business development, ideally within wastewater, water infrastructure, engineering, or technical industrial equipment. Enough technical curiosity/credibility to confidently discuss customer requirements and translate needs into referrals for the quoting team (you won’t be doing detailed quoting yourself). A relationship-led style, comfortable engaging with contractors, councils, and plant/operations stakeholders. A highly self-driven, structured way of working (you can prioritise, plan travel, and keep momentum without needing a local team around you). Confidence operating autonomously without becoming siloed - you naturally loop people in early, share context, and keep stakeholders informed. A collaborative sales style: you enjoy working with technical experts to shape solutions, rather than trying to “do it all yourself.” Genuine comfort with regular travel nationally (often 3–4 days at a time, depending on project activity). What’s on Offer Autonomy and flexibility: run your territory like your own business, with strong backing from a wider Australian engineering/sales network. A genuinely stable sector with significant infrastructure investment underway over the next decade. Technical training in Australia to get you up to speed on SPIRAC’s solutions and how the team operates. A role that blends new business + existing account care, as SPIRAC’s NZ footprint continues to grow. A supportive, practical leadership style: success here is built on good judgement, customer focus, and consistent follow-through. Next Steps?
