As a government entity, Sport New Zealand Ihi Aotearoa is proud to be a kaitiaki of our country's play, active recreation and sport system, from grassroots to elite sport. We do this through partnerships with national sport and recreation organisations, regional sports trusts, central government bodies, councils and other key stakeholders.

The Child Safeguarding Consultant will grow our resources to support child safeguarding in the integrity space.  Working with integrity specialists, you will apply your child safeguarding knowledge to the play, active recreation and sport sector by leading the development of a suite of materials to enhance the safe participation of tamariki and rangatahi.  Some of the materials will be child facing, while other work will involve development and awareness-raising of child-centred approaches for our partners to implement.

The successful individual will have experience of child safeguarding in some capacity and resource development expertise, preferably specialising in  communications for or with tamariki and rangatahi.  You will be determining the format and channels for the new resources and scriptwriting the content.  You will have access to creative experts to create products with that wow factor.
