NZME keeps Kiwis in the know about what matters most to them. We dig into what’s going on in the world and why, along with the latest and greatest in entertainment. We do it across over 50 of New Zealand’s leading media brands – each with its own voice, and each powered by the country’s top media personalities, journalists, broadcasters, designers, writers, and commercial thinkers. Combining radio, digital and print we reach over 3.5 million kiwis every week.
We offer the opportunity to work within a high-performing team in a supportive and vibrant environment. We’re Curious, Confident and Connected:
Being CONNECTED means we understand people. We engage the right people, share ideas, and listen to our audiences and customers.
Being CURIOUS means we ask questions, dig deeper and find gold. We challenge the status quo, dare to try, see bridges not barriers, dig deeper to discover, and we make it fun.
Being CONFIDENT means we step up, speak out and give things a crack. We get to the point, tell it like it is, do what we say, solve it at the source, and we keep it simple.
If this sounds like you, let's talk about how you can bring your expertise to our team.
