Spark NZ

As New Zealand's largest telecommunications and digital services company, Spark’s purpose is to help all of New Zealand win big in a digital world. We provide mobile, broadband, and digital services to millions of New Zealanders and thousands of New Zealand businesses.

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. Agile replaces the traditional hierarchical organisational structure to produce a transparent, collaborative environment with highly productive teams who are empowered to deliver better outcomes for our customers, communities, and all of New Zealand.

About the Role:

Spark is seeking a dynamic and experienced individual to join our Health, Safety and Wellbeing (HSW) team as a Chapter Lead. This role is pivotal in providing leadership, coaching, and mentoring for HSW craft development, and building specific HSW leadership capability and skills across our subsidiaries and HSW team.

Day to day you will be involved in:

Craft Development: Develop the craft of HSW across our HSW Partners through development planning and building capability for partnering skills.
Strategy Support: Drive Spark's HSW strategy by implementing annual HSW roadmaps and leading out our HSW principles.
Technical Advice: Provide and source technical advice to coach HSW partners to deliver the right outcomes for our customers and our business.
Operational Support: Oversee day-to-day partnering activities for operational support to ensure we are focused on ruthless prioritisation in what we do.

Risk Management: Support our HSW partners to work with leaders when managing our most critical H&S risks and activities.
Community Building: Drive the connection with our HSW Ambassadors and Mahi Tahi Coaches and the wider community and industry.
System Integration: Facilitate the development and integration of HSW systems and protocols into Spark group business areas.

What experience you'll bring?

Leadership: You are a confident leader who actively listens and focuses on the growth of people.
Critical Thinking: You use your initiative to identify gaps and get things done.
Negotiation: You are an effective negotiator who persuades stakeholders and your team, working collaboratively rather than coercing.
Team Development: You are committed to developing team competency by working on craft and development plans with individuals and having effective coaching conversations and one-on-ones.
Passion and Energy: You are passionate and energetic, fostering enthusiasm within your team.
Adaptability: You are adaptable and flexible to changes in priorities and demands.
Decisiveness: You are decisive and make necessary decisions in a timely fashion.
Integrity: You are self-directed and can be relied on to work with the highest integrity, even when no-one is watching.

WHY CHOOSE US:

Diversity and Inclusion: Te Kanorau me te Whakawhāiti mai

At Spark, we are constantly looking for ways to build a more inclusive culture. Our vision is for diversity and inclusion to be “how things are done at Spark”, embedded into our day-to-day activities, standards, and business practices. We want you to feel totally comfortable bringing your whole self to work regardless of your gender, ethnicity, orientation, age, or ability.

Sustainability: Toitū

Sustainability is a key focus for us. We are dedicated to supporting Aotearoa New Zealand’s recovery and economic transformation.
