The Geraldine District office is seeking a motivated and suitability experienced person to fill a permanent position in the Visitor Asset and Historic team.
This role will assist in the delivery of managing and maintaining the district's huts, tracks, historic sites, campgrounds and amenity areas to meet visitor standards and expectations. A significant component of the role will be the coordination of the hut and camp ground warden programme.

- an understanding and appreciation of conservation values in New Zealand and an ability to communicate these to a wide range of people
- commitment to achieving high standards, following best practice and meeting deadlines.
- excellent planning, organisation and communication skills.
