Working Here

People are key to Antarctica New Zealand’s success. This includes permanent and fixed term employees; seconded staff from the New Zealand Defence Force and our many strategic partners in Government, the science community and other National Antarctic Programmes. We seek to create a high performance organisation underpinned by a culture of shared beliefs.

Antarctica New Zealand has a variety of positions that support our operations in Christchurch and Antarctica. We are a Crown Entity and as such all employees are expected to uphold the Standards of Integrity and Conduct issued by the State Services Commissioner.

Positions are advertised for both locations throughout the year on this site, and range in contract type and duration.
