Communications Advisor
Three Month Fixed Term Contract in Wellington
Due to head-hunting, Federated Farmers needs a Communications Advisor in Wellington to cover the next three-months.
Paying $23 per hour (37.5 hours per week), you’ll combine two rare commodities - formal journalist training with an agricultural background. Failing that, you’ll be a public relations practitioner ‘who gets farming’. While not an entry level position it’s ideal for a journalist looking to explore ‘the other side’ and you must also be able to work legally in New Zealand.
No two days are ever the same. You will work on truly meaty issues going to the heart of New Zealand’s future. You will need to be a style guide martinet with impeccable grammatical skills. You must combine the subtlety of Ban Ki-moon with the tenacity of Alastair Campbell and if you don’t know who they are, don’t apply. You’ll have to know your cow from a bull and the difference between a Texel sheep and a Mohair goat. If you do, then this fixed term contract will truly extend you.
