Korero mo te turanga – About the role

You'll work closely with internal teams and the NZ Post Cyber Security Team, using their technical capability while you focus on audit coordination, governance, and continuous improvement of our control environment.

You'll be the key ISMS representative for Datam, planning and managing audits (held every three years), maintaining audit readiness in between cycles, ensuring evidence is collected and organised and managing non-conformities, and corrective actions.

You'll also support broader risk activities including supplier assurance, risk assessment and reporting to senior leaders.

This role is all about visibility, influence, and continuous improvement, ensuring our security framework stays robust, compliant, and future-ready.

You'll achieve that by :
