As Pou Mātārae, you will champion kaupapa Māori approaches across all areas including governance, operations, teaching, research, and community engagement. You'll be responsible for ensuring Māori success is visible, measurable, and enduring.
We are looking for a courageous and experienced leader grounded in te ao Māori.
You will bring deep knowledge of te reo me ngā tikanga, kaupapa Māori research, and iwi engagement. Your proven leadership in strategy, system change, and Tiriti partnership will enable you to influence at the highest levels.
