Are you a communications and marketing superstar looking for a chance to use your outstanding skills to change the world?

The Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand is New Zealand’s only national mental health charity. We work to improve the mental health and wellbeing of all New Zealanders. We run and partner in nearly 50 programmes and projects around Aotearoa and need a skilled communications and marketing professional to help our mahi connect with our audience.

We have a fixed-term role (until 31st December 2021) for a passionate, talented and enthusiastic individual to work on creating new suicide prevention resources for Māori. This role does involve some national travel in the early stages of development. Experience creating engaging and inspiring resources for Māori would be an advantage but not essential – our Māori engagement team will be with you every step of the way.

You will:

  • Have at least 5 years’ experience in a communications or marketing role
  • Be a phenomenal writer, editor, interviewer and proof-reader
  • Have knowledge of Te Ao Māori and Te Reo Māori (or a desire to grow and extend your knowledge)
  • Have demonstrated ability to create and execute audience-driven promotion plans
  • Be experienced in using social media to motivate and inspire
  • Have strong relationship management skills

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.

This role sits within the Mental Health Foundation’s communications and marketing team and reports to the communications and marketing team lead.

Salary will be commensurate to successful candidates’ skills and experience for the role.

The Mental Health Foundation actively promotes the articles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi. We value the expertise of people with experience of mental illness – tangata whaiora – and we are an EEO employer.

This role is based in our Mt Eden office.

Please apply with a cover letter and CV over at our applicant tracking system. 

Applicants for this role must have NZ Residency or a valid Work Visa.

The closing date for applications is Monday, 12th April 2021 at 5pm.
