Our work is secret, but the reason for our success isn’t. It’s our people. And we’re just like you. We’re ordinary people. But together, we’re doing extraordinary things to protect New Zealand and New Zealanders.
While we’re ordinary people, we’re not all the same. We welcome diversity, in all its forms, in fact we consider it a strength.
Join us and become part of a Community where your skills, experiences and ideas are valued and you’re encouraged to be curious, to share your ideas and of course, have fun along the way.
If you’re up for the challenge, become Beyond Ordinary with us.
The Information Assurance and Cyber Security Directorate (IACD) creates a safer digital world for New Zealand to prosper. In a constantly evolving threat environment, IACD provides specialist cyber security services to defend national security, raise cyber resilience, facilitate digital transformation, support economic recovery and improve New Zealand’s wellbeing. It engages with a diverse public and private customer base across New Zealand in order to fulfil its essential purpose. IACD houses the National Cyber Security Centre and the Government Chief Information Security Officer function.
In this role, you will support the Business Manager and wider directorate to identify new business processes to enhance service delivery, and develop and prepare documentation. You will also have a flair for numbers and enjoy making sure people have the right information to make the right decisions.
You will need to be self-driven, organised and have the ability to learn and acquire new knowledge and skills. Your eye for detail and commitment to accuracy and quality will be appreciated and well utilised.

This is a new role within the directorate and would offer the right candidates scope to come in and really make the role their own.
We want our people to succeed, whatever success looks like for them.
