"I am privileged to work with people from all walks of life, providing variety in a demanding and fast-paced role.  We support our clients to deliver creative and unique events, while making sure things run smoothly ‘behind the scenes’. Seeing people enjoy each event always gives us all a great sense of satisfaction."

- Josephine Godfrey, Auckland Conventions, Venues & Events

"It’s an absolute thrill to look around a performance space and see the light in an audience’s eyes when an arts experience gives them not only what they were imagining, but so much more."

- Helaina Keeley, Auckland Live

"Being a keeper is one of the most rewarding jobs you can have – not only because we work with these amazing animals, but also we’re in a position to educate the public about conservation issues and how they can help wildlife."

- Anuradha Jayasinghe, Auckland Zoo

"Events and concerts give us the amazing opportunity to showcase talent, challenge perceptions, inform, celebrate and entertain. We all genuinely want our patrons to experience something special – a significant moment at an exciting game or a song at a concert that evokes a treasured memory. It’s honestly a privilege to do this job."

- Emily Wotton, Auckland Stadiums

"Our work is inspiring. We are the key to unlocking stories, past and present, that explore and explain our connection to the sea. Our passion is to share the taonga (treasures) and mātauranga o te moana, (knowledge of the sea), promoting shared learnings across generations."

- Leichelle Tanoa, New Zealand Maritime Museum

"We have the truly unique opportunity to experiment with new forms of exhibition-making, and to work with people inside and outside the Gallery to create engaging programmes for diverse communities."

- Julia Waite, Auckland Art Gallery
