We are building a new Museum for Waitaha Canterbury – a world-class facility for the taonga (treasures) we care for and a place to tell the stories of our region and the people who live here.

Reporting to the Tumuaki | Director and a member of the Executive Leadership Team, you will drive the development and execution of the Museum’s IT strategy. Managing a small technology team, you will provide hands-on leadership to technology evaluation, design, management and delivery. You will also establish appropriate policies and processes to support organisational technology strategies.

We are looking for a leader with a deep understanding of emerging technology trends and best practice. You will have significant experience executing technology strategy, with a sound knowledge of proprietary and open-source software, data integration and API development, security and performance, and overall technology architecture.

This is a fixed term contract role for 5 years as we move through our redevelopment journey.
