Mō mātou | About us

The Marketing team sits within the Executive Services and Communications group. This brings together communications, governance and leadership support functions to provide a clear and consistent voice for Inland Revenue.

We deliver around 30-40 targeted campaigns each year. Our focus is on helping customers know what they need to do and making it easier for them to take the right actions, at the right time, to meet their tax obligations.

At Inland Revenue Te Tari Taake we’re passionate about Aotearoa New Zealand being a great place to live and work. We’re making it simpler for everyone to pay tax that pays for things like health care, education and protecting the environment.

We are committed to keeping to the Treaty of Waitangi's guiding principles in our work for and with Māori customers and our employees, their whānau, hapū and iwi.

We are committed to building an inclusive workplace free from inequalities, where all our people are valued, respected and feel supported to reach their full potential.
