Communications & Marketing Manager

Lead the conversation. Grow the community. Shape the future of motorsport.

MotorSport New Zealand is on the move.

We're building stronger connections with our clubs, competitors, officials, partners and fans, launching new initiatives, growing participation, and creating a bigger, bolder future for motorsport in New Zealand.
That's where you come in.

We're looking for an energetic Communications & Marketing Manager who loves turning ideas into action, building engaged communities, creating compelling content, and making things happen.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to maintain the status quo. It's for someone who gets excited by growth, thrives on variety, and wants the opportunity to make a genuine mark on one of New Zealand's most passionate sporting communities.  Basically this is an awesome role that you can get your teeth stuck into to make Motorsport New Zealand a great organisation and community to be part of.

Reporting to the CEO and sitting on our Leadership Team, you'll have the freedom, influence and ownership to help drive the next chapter of MotorSport New Zealand.

What you'll be doing

• Driving our communications, marketing and stakeholder engagement strategy
• Growing our digital presence across social media, content, website and customer channels
• Building stronger connections with clubs, licence holders, sponsors, competitors and fans
• Launching new programmes, initiatives and participation opportunities
• Delivering campaigns, PR activity and brand-building projects
• Creating engaging content that informs, inspires and connects our community
• Using insights and data to drive growth, engagement and participation

What we're looking for

You'll be someone who combines strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.
You'll bring:

• Strong communications and marketing experience
• Outstanding relationship-building and stakeholder engagement skills
• Digital marketing and content creation expertise
• A commercial mindset and passion for growth
• Energy, initiative and a willingness to roll up your sleeves
• The confidence to bring fresh ideas, challenge thinking and make things happen

Most importantly, you'll love being part of a passionate community and will be excited by the opportunity to help shape where we're heading next.

Why join us?

Because opportunities like this don't come along often.
You'll join a small, ambitious team where your ideas will be heard, your contribution will be visible, and your impact will be felt.
You'll have the opportunity to:

• Shape the future of a nationally recognised sporting organisation
• Own the full marketing mix and create meaningful change
• Launch new products, programmes and engagement initiatives
• Work directly with the CEO and influence strategic direction
• Build connections across one of New Zealand’s most passionate sporting communities
• Leave your mark on a sport with an exciting future

Based in Cuba Mall, Wellington's creative quarter, you'll be surrounded by the energy, diversity and vibrancy that inspires fresh thinking and bold ideas.
