ASA - Advertising Standards Authority

NOTE: Applications for both these roles have now closed.

We are currently looking for people to fill two important roles at the ASA. We are seeking a Marketing and Communications Advisor (permanent, 20 hours per week) and an Administrator (12 month contract, full time).

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) provides an inclusive and accessible workplace where the contribution of each team member is respected and valued. The ASA provides a work environment in which individual diversity is recognised and all team members have equal opportunities to fulfil their potential.

Marketing and Communications Advisor

The ASA is a self-regulatory organisation that sets the standards for responsible advertising in New Zealand. Your time will be spent working with the Chief Executive to support the strategic objectives of the ASA and its mission of “Every ad a responsible ad”.

Whether you are currently employed in a marketing and communications role or looking to return to the workforce, we want someone with excellent project management skills and the ability to work independently and under pressure.

Your communication skills and attention to detail are second to none. You will be skilled in producing content for a range of channels and you will have experience in providing strategic engagement and communications planning and delivery.

If you’re also a fast learner who works well in a small team, you’ll fit in perfectly with us. The role provides an opportunity to learn plenty about industry self-regulation and advertising standards and it also means meeting key industry players and working with a friendly team in a great location in central Wellington.

This is a part time role (20 hours per week) with flexibility to structure hours to suit other commitments.

For further information or to apply with a CV and cover letter telling us why you would be great for this role, please contact Hilary Souter, Chief Executive, via email at asa@asa.co.nz. The closing date for applications is 27 January 2020.
