We advertise staff vacancies on this page and other relevant sites.

Accident investigation is specialised and time-critical work that requires broad proven expertise and skill, including:

  • Excellent communication, both verbal and written, dealing all social tiers
  • Logical and analytical capability, with very strong attention to detail and accuracy
  • Anticipate risk and identify mitigations
  • Problem solving 
  • Project teamwork
  • Relationship management 
  • Energy, diplomacy and tact.

It can be demanding work that necessitates medical and physical fitness (accident sites can be anywhere) and resilience in stressful and emotionally difficult circumstances. 

While relevant investigative qualifications are desirable, the successful candidate will undergo extensive, world class specialised training in accident investigation. This is part of TAIC's supportive and development-focused environment. A typical job description for a Transport Accident Investigation Commission Investigator is available at right in the Document Downloads box -->.

All positions are based in Wellington, New Zealand.
