Senior Analyst, Evaluation, Operations Directorate

Vacancy 1206
Closing Date:  End of Sunday 22 November 2009

This is a full-time fixed term role until December 2011 and is Wellington-based.

This is an exciting time to be involved in making a positive difference to New Zealand's environment and reducing our waste to improve our sustainability.

The government is committed to reducing the amount of waste through the imposition of a levy on all waste disposed of to landfill. The proceeds from the levy are distributed to territorial authorities and the newly-established waste minimisation fund to support waste minimisation activities. The Ministry for the Environment collects the levy and manages the distribution of funds.

We are looking for someone to join the Operations Directorate to establish and implement an evaluation plan to evaluate waste minimisation outcomes.

For this role you’ll need experience in managing evaluation processes, including procuring evaluation services and reviewing evaluation outputs to ensure the quality and validity of evaluation work. You will be able to understand the strategic implications of the evaluation findings and present the results to a range of stakeholders.

Whatever your background, you are positive, innovative, good at relationships and know how to work in a team to achieve results.
