Volleyball New Zealand is now advertising for a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to lead the organisation through its next stage of development.

The Auckland-based role will provide strategic and operational leadership across the national body, with a strong focus on sustainable growth, commercial development, and strengthening relationships with regional associations, Sport New Zealand, and international partners.

The CEO will oversee an annual budget of approximately $5–6 million, lead long-term sponsorship and partnership opportunities, and represent Volleyball New Zealand at key events both domestically and internationally. The role requires a visible leadership approach, with regular engagement across regions and the wider volleyball community.

The position offers a competitive remuneration package, flexible working arrangements, international travel opportunities, and the opportunity to work with a supportive and engaged Board.
