Yachting New Zealand is looking for a NZCT Regional Support Officer for the upper South Island region, including Canterbury, Marlborough, Nelson and the West Coast.
This is a key role for YNZ, providing on the ground support to clubs and sailors, helping build club capability, growing participation and raise awareness throughout schools and the community. This is a challenging role requiring the RSO to manage multiple demands over a large region.
We require someone who is truly passionate about sailing and growing the sport in New Zealand; someone who knows yacht clubs is fresh thinking and has a creative approach to growing the sport, is able to work with a wide variety of people (young and old), has good conflict resolution skills and can be the face of Yachting New Zealand in the regions.
The successful candidate will need to be able to work outside “normal working hours” as this role requires weekend and after hours work. This is a 32 hours per week role. The RSO reports directly to Yachting New Zealand Participation and Development Manager, Andrew Clouston.
A Job Description is available from the Yachting New Zealand website
