Te Whiwhinga Mahi | The Opportunity

We have an opportunity for an experienced Project Manager to join us on a fixed term basis across the preparation and delivery of our 5-year investment plan, for submission to our regulator. You will plan, coordinate and drive delivery of complex, document led outputs, bringing together inputs from finance, asset investment, legal and regulatory teams into a single, high-quality submission. You will also lead delivery of other compliance reporting obligations across the legal and regulatory function.

This work sits at the centre of how Chorus meets its regulatory responsibilities. You will bring together internal stakeholders to ensure timely and accurate delivery of information, while maintaining close alignment with the Commerce Commission and independent reviewers, supporting delivery at key milestones under external scrutiny.

Through this project, you’ll experience how collaborative, complex work enables better futures across Aotearoa.
