- Join a warm and friendly culture where values really matter!

Located in Christchurch
Our people set Skills apart from other industry training organisations. Here you'll find smart, supportive, innovative individuals who believe in what they do and get a kick out of doing it. We like to push the boundaries, challenge the status quo and find new and better ways to help New Zealanders achieve nationally recognised qualifications in their workplaces.
IMPORTANT TO US
Humans!
We use a human approach to leadership, so we are passionate and inspired by what we do. We also try to be a great place to work. Leadership, values and fit are key for all of our leaders. Extensive staff benefits, and a great wellbeing programme, demonstrate how we live our values!
We're seeking a leader that is committed to guidance and development, and up for the challenge of distance management. You will need the knack of enabling your team to take responsibility and shine.
The nuts and bolts
You will confidently take ownership to ensure high quality services are delivered to Skills' clients, business development opportunities are maximised, client expectations are managed to achieve STM targets and Educational Performance Indicators.
We're looking for exceptional relationship management and influencing skills. To effectively drive the strategy of the Specialist Trades and Business team you'll need to be confident, a great listener, and bring internal and external stakeholders on the journey. Resilience and purpose will set you up for success in this area.
Experience in the trades industry or education would round all that off nicely, but not essential.
IMPORTANT TO YOU
Life AND Career! The group you are part of takes work life balance seriously. We'll help you grow your career in a fun and stimulating environment with plenty of support. We want to hear your successes, your goals and see if we'd be a good fit for your future.
The role is Christchurch based, with Account Managers located from Otago to Nelson so you'll need to be comfortable with a reasonable amount of domestic travel.
If this sounds exciting to you then apply with your CV and a cover letter telling us a bit about you and why you'd be perfect to lead our South Island team.
