Take a seat at the GQ table
The legal industry is transforming, experiencing the fastest rate of change that we have ever seen – and it’s only going to get faster. Driven by advancements in legal technology and evolving client expectations, we are eager to take advantage of different ways of thinking and working, and are looking for someone to bring new perspectives and turn inspirational ideas into our reality.
Relationships first
Located in a strong business community in the heart of Taranaki, Govett Quilliam prides itself on delivering legal excellence to its clients. From navigating the complexities of corporate governance to guiding families through their most intimate challenges, we are dedicated to securing the best outcomes for our clients. We seek to nurture meaningful relationships, not only with our clients, but within the Taranaki community, and beyond, and a key aspect of the role will be sustaining current relationships and developing new ones.
Embody excellence
Embracing strong values, we encourage our people to explore their passions and hone their expertise. With a high calibre of work available, our people are positioned and encouraged to become regionally and nationally recognised in their field. Your leadership will be instrumental in continuing our culture of excellence, high performance, innovation, and client-centred service within the firm.
Champion innovation
We have a strong and successful history but are focused on the opportunities ahead. Working alongside a supportive and future-focused partnership and management team, you will:
- be responsible for implementing the organisation’s strategic and operational plans to ensure overall business success;
- challenge our thinking and explore new ways of working;
- oversee all aspects of the firm's operations, including people management, practice and IT systems, financial management, stakeholder relationships, and business development.
Build trust
We would love to hear from you if you have:
- a proven track record of executive leadership;
- strong business acumen, financial literacy, strategic thinking and implementation skills, and people management skills;
- exceptional interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to influence and inspire others, and manage and enhance a high-performance team;
- the ability to drive growth, manage change, and deliver results in a dynamic and competitive environment; and
- an understanding of professional services trends, competitive landscape, and client needs.
Live and work well
With Taranaki Maunga visible from the office, the moana just a short stroll away, and cafes, restaurants and museums right around the corner, Taranaki is an exceptional place to live and work.
