Ko tō tūranga – your role

As our Enterprise Customer & Internal Engagement Lead, you’ll plan and deliver a coordinated programme of customer and internal engagement activity across Enterprise Customers and the wider Customer function.

You’ll create high-quality experiences that connect our people, strengthen customer relationships and ensure One NZ participates in the right external events with the right customers. Your portfolio will include customer events and hospitality, internal hui, leadership forums and the Legends recognition programme.

Working closely with Sales, Enterprise Practices, Brand & Marketing and business leaders, you’ll align audiences, content, timing and delivery. While Sales leaders and account teams retain accountability for commercial outcomes and strategic customer relationships, you’ll own engagement quality, audience fit, programme governance and execution excellence.

• Own the annual Enterprise and Business engagement calendar, covering customer and third-party events, hospitality, hui, leadership forums and the Legends programme.
• Lead the end-to-end design and delivery of customer events, executive forums, conferences, sponsorship activations, hospitality and partner experiences.
• Work with Sales leaders and account teams to match customers with relevant events, coordinating nominations, invitations, registration, guest lists, hosting plans and attendance records.
• Plan and deliver internal hui, leadership forums, town halls, team connection sessions and other priority internal events.
• Own the annual planning and end-to-end delivery of the Enterprise and Business Legends recognition programme and associated winner experiences.
• Manage event budgets, suppliers, agencies, venues, contracts, procurement, travel, privacy, health and safety, risk and delivery governance.
• Partner with business leaders, Brand & Marketing, Product, Practices, PR and external partners to coordinate relevant content, speakers and on-brand experiences.
• Use attendance information, feedback and programme insights to improve audience selection, experience quality, operational efficiency and future planning.

Na Tōu Rourou - What You’ll Bring

• Extensive experience leading complex customer or corporate events, internal engagement activity or recognition programmes, ideally within a large, matrixed organisation.
• Proven end-to-end delivery experience across executive customer events, hospitality, conferences, hui, leadership forums, awards or recognition experiences.
• Strong judgement in audience design and guest selection, with the ability to match customers, stakeholders and event formats appropriately.
• Excellent programme management, prioritisation and operational discipline across multiple concurrent events.
• Confident stakeholder leadership skills and experience working with senior executives, customer-facing teams, partners, agencies and suppliers.
• Experience managing sizeable budgets, contracts, procurement, event risk, privacy, health and safety requirements and travel logistics.
• Strong written communication, event briefing, agenda design, speaker coordination and run-sheet capability.
• Confidence using event registration, CRM, survey and reporting tools, together with commercial awareness and an owner’s mindset.

Nā Mātou Te Rourou – What You’ll Get

• One New Zealand is leading the way by ensuring you can have a truly balanced life. Most roles allow flexibility to work from home and flex your hours to enjoy work & whānau commitments.
• A fully subsidised Southern Cross health insurance cover for you and your family.
• Lifestyle leave, giving you the option to purchase an extra week or two of annual leave.
• Discounts on One New Zealand products, services and much more!

We are proudly Rainbow Tick certified and champion diversity of thought, perspective and background. Joining our whānau is more than starting a new job - it’s the beginning of a journey that will challenge and inspire you to play a role in something bigger.
