Mō te tūranga - About the role

We have two rare opportunities - both as key members of the NZ Tax Team for ANZ NZ (NZ’s largest corporate taxpayer).

This role will help ensure ANZ’s tax obligations are well-managed throughout the Ngā Tapuwae programme and manage relationships across the programme, the NZ tax team, ANZ business teams and Inland Revenue.

Banking is changing and we’re changing with it, giving our people great opportunities to try new things, learn and grow. Whatever your role at ANZ, you’ll be building your future, while helping to build ours.
