About the Opportunity

Due to an internal promotion, the Community Engagement Manager role has become available. In this role, you will lead the delivery of TRC’s community engagement strategy and grow the leads pipeline for affordable housing and financial literacy programmes. With strategy and frameworks already in place, your focus will be on execution, driving culturally grounded engagement and strengthening key relationships across Tāmaki communities. You will oversee two Community Engagement Advisors and bring proven experience delivering engagement plans and demonstrating their impact.

Above all, you’ll be adaptable, resilient, and collaborative, thriving in a team that works collectively across shared priorities.

Why Join TRC?
At TRC, values guide every aspect of the work:

  • Ka Poipoi: Deep care for and nurturing of one another.
  • Ka Honohono Tātou: A commitment to joining together and building strong connections.
  • Ka Waihanga Tahi Tātou: A shared approach to reflecting, learning, designing, and creating together.
