About us

The Electricity Authority Te Mana Hiko is an independent Crown entity that regulates the electricity market. We are a kaitiaki of electricity, and our purpose is to enhance New Zealanders' lives, prosperity, and environment through electricity.

The electricity industry is at a pivotal moment, with the journey towards renewable energy sources and innovation reshaping how we operate. To meet these challenges and opportunities, we're evolving as an organisation - growing our capabilities, expanding our reach, and building a team ready to create a brighter, more sustainable future for Aotearoa. Our focus is on making a difference through bold thinking, collaboration, and delivering value for the communities we serve.

About the role

Shape the future of our workspace. We're looking for a proactive Office Manager for a fixed-term role through to 30 June 2026. You'll lead the planning and delivery of our workspace project, exploring options like relocation, expansion, or reconfiguring our current space to better support our teams.

You'll also manage the day-to-day running of the office, including supplies, equipment, service providers, health and safety, and staff events. If you're organised, solutions-focused, and enjoy making things happen, we'd love to hear from you.

Our ideal candidate

You will bring the following:

  • Proven experience in office management, including office relocation projects
  • Strong attention to detail, with initiative and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to build and maintain effective relationships with a wide range of stakeholders

Why work for us?

Electricity plays a critical role in the quality of our lives and businesses. As an electricity kaitiaki our work is diverse, intellectually challenging and contributes to our communities, economy, environment, and the nation as a whole. We are a small but high-impact organisation where talented individuals can make a real difference. We foster an open, collaborative environment that encourages quality, innovation, ongoing learning, and knowledge sharing.

We support a healthy work-life balance and offer a range of benefits to support our teams, including the following:

  • Flexible working options
  • Ongoing training, support, and professional development to help you grow
  • Regular social events to connect with colleagues across the year
