We operate in an exciting and constantly evolving industry, where the pace of change brings new and unique challenges every day, so we operate using Agile ways of working to allow us to meet the fast-changing needs of our customers.

Interpret and champion our new customer experience vision, translating strategic objectives into actionable optimisation programmes that deliver measurable business impact
Define and evolve the organisation's digital optimisation framework, methodologies, and best practices
Own the strategic roadmap for driving online growth across web and app channels, identifying high-impact opportunities that balance customer value with commercial objectives
Build, lead, and inspire a diverse team of digital optimisation specialists, fostering an environment of excellence, innovation, and continuous learning
What experience you'll bring?
7-10 years of experience in digital analytics, optimisation, or related fields, with at least 3 years in leadership roles
Proven track record of developing and executing strategies that drive significant online growth and commercial success
Ability to see the big picture whilst maintaining attention to critical details
Visionary thinking about how emerging technologies and customer behaviours will shape the future of digital experiences
WHY CHOOSE US:
Diversity and Inclusion: Te Kanorau me te Whakawhāiti mai

Sustainability: Toitū
Sustainability is a key focus for us. We are dedicated to supporting Aotearoa New Zealand's recovery and economic transformation. The principle of equity is at the very heart of our approach, and we remain committed to working in partnership to make a positive contribution to digital equity in line with our focus on Diversity and Inclusion.
Benefits: Awhina
