Te Rarawa Anga Mua - Kaitāia

Exciting new roles available

Tai Pīrere Whānau Learning Engagement Kaimahi (six vacancies) - Join our kaupapa!

Are you deeply connected to your community and passionate about helping tamariki and whānau thrive in education?

We’re looking for Whānau Learning Engagement kaimahi to deliver a kaupapa that reignites a love of learning for our taiohi who are disengaged from school. This isn’t a typical case management role — you’ll walk alongside whānau, helping them navigate challenges and co-create pathways to educational re-engagement.

Your Role:

  • Build trusted relationships with whānau.
  • Facilitate wānanga for our whānau and co-design their learning pathways.
  • Be the dedicated kaimahi for your local hapori, working within one of six local zones in the Kaitāia catchment.

You’ll Bring:

  • Strong community ties and a heart for whānau.
  • Experience in education, social work, youth work, or community health.
  • Confidence in Te Ao Māori and a full driver’s license are essential.
  • Empathy, resilience, and the ability to build trust.

If you believe in the power of whanaungatanga to create change, we’d love to hear from you. 


Tai Oro Business Analyst (one vacancy) - Help us tell the story of our kaupapa. 

Are you a data expert who loves storytelling and cares deeply about community?

We’re looking for a Tai Oro Business Analyst to support our new learning re-engagement kaupapa. You’ll manage service data, track performance, and most importantly, tell the story of our mahi — blending numbers with narrative to show the impact of our mahi but most of all, the success of our whānau.

Your Role:

  • Master Ministry of Education data systems.
  • Prepare clear, insightful reports.
  • Combine quantitative data with qualitative insights.
  • Support continuous improvement and contract reporting.

You’ll Bring:

  • Strong analytical and communication skills.
  • Experience with data tools and reporting (ideally in government contracts).
  • A strategic mindset, a passion for, and in-depth knowledge of kaupapa-driven work.
  • Fluent or conversant in te reo Māori would be an advantage.

If you can find the story in the stats and want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you. 


Tai Tuia Administrator (one vacancy) - Be the organisational heart of our kaupapa. 

Are you the calm, organised centre that keeps everything running smoothly?

We’re looking for a proactive Administrator to support our new learning re-engagement service. You’ll be the first point of contact, providing a warm and mana-enhancing experience for whānau and stakeholders.

Your Role:

  • Coordinate referrals and wānanga logistics.
  • Manage our Whānau Fund with diligence and care.
  • Provide high-level admin support to the team.

You'll bring:

  • Proven experience in senior admin or office management.
  • Strong financial admin skills and Microsoft 365 expertise.
  • A good working knowledge of te ao Māori and a commitment to using te reo Māori.
  • A calm, positive, and organised approach.

If you’re an exceptional organiser who wants your mahi to make a real impact, we’d love to hear from you.
