If you're the person who likes being in the middle of the action rather than talking about it, keep reading.

We're partnering with one of New Zealand's most respected corporate affairs consultancies. Consistently recognised for its work, this firm advises some of the country's most influential organisations through complex issues, high-profile projects, reputation challenges, stakeholder engagement programmes and business-critical communications initiatives.

We're looking for a smart, commercially-minded corporate affairs professional with around five years' experience who enjoys the grunty end of communications: the writing, advising, stakeholder management, media engagement, problem solving and client delivery that keeps organisations moving forward.

You'll be trusted to lead day-to-day client work, build strong client relationships, provide advice, drive projects, and ensure exceptional delivery across a diverse portfolio of corporate affairs and communications programmes.

What you'll be doing
  • Managing and growing relationships with a portfolio of clients
  • Providing practical, trusted communications and corporate affairs advice
  • Writing high-quality content including media releases, executive communications, stakeholder messaging, briefings and strategic communications materials
  • Supporting media engagement and stakeholder relations activity
  • Leading projects from start to finish, ensuring work is delivered on time and to a high standard
  • Identifying opportunities to expand client engagements and contribute to business growth
  • Working closely with senior leaders while having genuine ownership of your own workstreams and client relationships
About you

You may currently be a Senior Account Executive ready for the next step, or already operating at SAM level in an agency, consultancy or advisory environment.

You'll likely bring:
  • Around 5+ years' experience in corporate communications, public affairs, corporate affairs, PR or strategic communications
  • Exceptional writing skills and attention to detail
  • Experience working directly with clients and senior stakeholders
  • Strong commercial instincts and the confidence to drive work forward independently
  • The ability to navigate complexity, think critically and exercise sound judgement
  • A proactive mindset and genuine curiosity about business, politics, media and current affairs
  • The confidence to represent both clients and your organisation professionally in high-stakes situations
Quite simply, it's one of the best opportunities in Auckland for someone wanting to accelerate their corporate affairs career.

You'll work alongside some of the sharpest minds in the industry, gain exposure to some of New Zealand's most interesting and complex communications challenges, and join a firm with an outstanding reputation, strong values and a track record of delivering exceptional outcomes for clients.

If you're intellectually curious, commercially aware, a strong writer and someone who genuinely enjoys delivering great client work, we'd love to hear from you.
