JOB OPPORTUNITIES WITH DOC AT TONGARIRO NATIONAL PARK

Kia ora whānau,

The Department of Conservation (DOC) has contacted us to share some exciting full-time, permanent job opportunities based right in the heart of Tongariro National Park. These are fantastic roles for anyone passionate about conservation, people, and our whenua.

The roles available are:

• Principal Ranger – Community and Treaty
  Leads the community engagement, Treaty/iwi team, and the Visitor Centre. Looking for someone with strong leadership, experience in iwi and community engagement, and knowledge of te ao Māori.

• Operations Advisor
  Supports the wider team by ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. A great role if you’re highly organised, strategic, and enjoy being at the centre of the action.

• Ranger Project Lead – Visitor Centre
  Leads the Visitor Centre team at Whakapapa Village and manages how we welcome and support visitors. Experience in retail or customer service would be an advantage, with lots of energy needed to create outstanding visitor experiences.

DOC has said they would love to see these roles filled by locals/uri, so if this sounds like you (or someone you know), it’s worth checking out.
