Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The investigator will conduct thorough investigations into complaints and regulatory breaches across various occupational licensing schemes. They will assess evidence, engage with stakeholders, and produce clear, defensible reports to support regulatory decision-making.
Candidates must have proven experience in investigations, compliance, or a comparable regulatory environment. Strong analytical, written communication, and legislative interpretation skills are essential for this role.
Occupational Regulation is a cross-sector team responsible for several occupational licensing and registration schemes, including Immigration Advisers, Electrical Workers, Licensed Building Practitioners, Motor Vehicle Traders, Auctioneers and Pool Inspectors. Over time, other licensing and registration schemes may come into or out of Occupational Regulation.
As an Investigator, you will play an important role in protecting the public and supporting confidence in occupational regulation. Reporting to the Manager Investigations, you will investigate complaints and alleged regulatory breaches across the schemes Occupational Regulation supports, applying legislation, evidence and sound judgement to reach robust recommendations.
This is a varied and meaningful role where no two matters are the same. You will assess information, identify relevant issues, engage with complainants, practitioners, Boards and other stakeholders, and prepare clear investigation reports that support fair and defensible decision-making. You may also support matters that proceed to disciplinary or court processes.
You will join a fast-paced, collaborative and supportive team that works across complex regulatory environments. We are looking for someone who brings curiosity, resilience, strong analytical skills and a commitment to continuous improvement, quality and natural justice.
Skills and Experience Required
MBIE's goal is to create a resilient and high-performing economy that delivers real and ongoing quality of life for all New Zealanders.
We do this by working with others to create an environment that supports businesses to be more productive and internationally competitive, enables all New Zealanders to participate in the economy through improved job opportunities and by working to ensure quality housing is more affordable.
People are at the heart of our mahi, our way of working is guided by our values which shape our behaviours.
Our aspirations are echoed in our Māori identity – Hīkina Whakatutuki – which broadly means ‘lifting to make successful'.
MBIE recognises the partnership founded under Te Tiriti o Waitangi between Māori and the Crown and is committed to giving effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi. We will do this through enduring, meaningful and effective partnerships with iwi, Māori, other Māori groups/organisations and the Crown, as this is critical to enable economic and social development, both for Māori and for wider Aotearoa New Zealand. We are committed to continuing to partner with iwi in order to find new sustainable solutions to address long standing systemic and cross-cutting issues facing Māori and wider Aotearoa New Zealand and we are also committed to identifying opportunities for iwi to lead and creating an enabling environment for iwi to leverage these opportunities.
E mōhio ana a Hīkina Whakatutuki i puea ake te kōtuinga I waenganui i a ngāi Māori me te Karauna i Te Tiriti o Waitangi, ā, kei te whai ia ki te whakaū ake i Te Tiriti o Waitangi. Mā te whai kiko o ngā kōtuinga ahunga roa o ngā iwi, o ngāi Māori, me ētahi atu rōpū Māori ki te Karauna, ka tutuki tēnei. He āhuatanga nui tēnei e āhei ai ngā mahi whanaketanga ā-ohanga, ā-pāpori hoki ki a ngāi Māori me Aotearoa whānui. E whai tonu ana mātou ki te kōtui atu ki ngā iwi mō te rapu huarahi hou ki te whakaara i ngā kaupapa kua roa nei e tāmi ana i a ngāi Māori me Aotearoa whānui, ā, e whai ana hoki ki te tautohu i ngā āheinga kōkiritanga mā ngā iwi, me te tautoko i ngā iwi kia whai mana ake ai ēnei āheinga.
