Thriving together - mō te taiao, mō ngā tāngata.
Our environment and our people go hand-in-hand.

We’re looking for a proactive and solutions-focused Business Services Officer to join our information management team in Whakatāne on a 12-month fixed-term basis. This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in our SharePoint journey, where we want to help embed modern information management practices across the organisation. 

This is a great opportunity to make a real impact in this fixed term, fulltime role and grow your skills while helping to shape the future of information management at Toi Moana. 

Te āhuatunga a te tūranga | About the role

As a Business Services Officer, you’ll be at the forefront of our digital transformation, supporting the business to navigate the new SharePoint environment and ensuring our information is well-organised, secure, and accessible. You’ll work closely with teams across the organisation to respond to a growing volume of complex “Jobs for SharePoint” requests, support the digitisation of hard copy records, help implement automated retention and disposal processes, and support the clean-up and classification of legacy records.

You will also undertake quality audits and data integrity administration of our systems. If you have experience with AI or automation in information management, even better — we’re keen to explore how we can further streamline our systems and improve data integrity.
