Karitāne Māori Tours - Manager Position

We have sadly accepted the resignation of Chris Wilson who has been excellent in the role of Karitāne Māori Tours (KMT) manager for the last 18 months. Chris will be leaving for opportunities and travel in Europe in May.

Karitāne Māori Tours continues to grow, and we are excited about the relationship with Sport Otago – Tu Manawa programme to subsidise school visits and are looking forward to the support of Tohu Whenua to be launched soon. The majority of tours currently are with schools and tertiary students, with increasing numbers of independent travellers and corporate groups coming for waka rides and a guided walk around Huriawa. The new manager will support the development of cycle tours and a cruise ship package.

Please consider the opportunity yourself or recommend the opportunity to others who you think could be the next KMT manager.

This is a contracted role with a guaranteed minimum number of hours and room to earn more according to bookings. The manager’s role is responsible for the operation of KMT, and they also have the support of other team members, Rūnaka staff and consultants for the guiding, administration, marketing, and business development. Operations include dealing with enquiries, arranging programmes and guides to meet the needs of visitors, overseeing our gear and equipment.

We have a detailed job description available and would love to discuss the role further if you are interested to learn more before preparing an application.
