About you

You are excited to bring your professionalism and expertise to enable the greatest possible impact for whānau experiencing money chaos in Aotearoa.

You are an influential leader, who challenges yourself and others. You don’t opt to take a path of least resistance. Instead, you leverage your skills and expertise to do what is right for the Kaupapa and the people you’re serving.

You are ready to undertake a journey – not only committed to your own professional and personal transformation, but you are deeply invested in enabling transformation in others.

You’ll also bring relevant experience for the role:

  • Proven leadership experience (2+ years) in client-centered service delivery, ideally within the not-for-profit or social services sector, with the ability to guide teams through change and deliver impactful outcomes.
  • Demonstrated expertise and experience as a certified Financial Mentor; supervisory experience is beneficial but not essential
  • Familiarity with financial institutions, systems and practices in Aotearoa
  • Emotional intelligence and professional maturity, balancing empathy, compassion, and best practice—especially when working with vulnerable people and navigating complex challenges.
