Te Tākinatanga - Our Story 

At Contact, we believe home is the most important place in the world. That belief shapes everything we do, from leading the energy transition to how we power Aotearoa and care for our people and communities.

We’re a power, broadband, and mobile company, but we’re also investing boldly in renewable energy and smarter, more connected ways of working (mahi). Our ambition is simple: to leave Aotearoa better than we found it.

Guided by our tikanga, we’re a team who care deeply about the work we do, how we support one another, and the impact we have. Simply put, we touch lives to make life better.

Our Brand & Marketing team plays an important role in helping customers understand who we are, what we stand for, and how we can make life a little easier at home. As we continue to evolve how we connect with customers, we're looking for a seasoned marketing professional to lead the development and delivery of campaigns that build awareness, strengthen customer engagement, and bring our brand to life in meaningful ways.

This role arrives at an exciting time, with the opportunity to shape major integrated campaigns, work alongside leading agency partners, and take ownership of new partnership activity that will be highly visible across Aotearoa.
