Dear John,
I refer to your official information request, received by Education New Zealand (ENZ) on 18
November 2019. This response relates to your request, as follows:
I would like to request the salary band for all international posts you have outside
of NZ(e.g. Education Manager, Senior Market Development Manager, Market
Development Manager, Education Marketing Manager, Regional Director,
Regional Manager, Programme Manager, Field Director etc) and their relevant
benefit documents, (e.g. medical/international travel/accommodation etc) for
example, beside their salary, what else they will get/ peaks etc.
Also, if possible I would like to ask the salary band for the local posts as well
(people based in NZ)
The information you have requested is in the attached spreadsheets:
• The s
alary bands spreadsheet shows the salary bands applicable for ENZ’s international
and New Zealand posts
• The
job titles spreadsheet shows the job titles for each salary band
• The o
ffshore benefits spreadsheet shows the general benefits provided across ENZ’s
international locations. ENZ has decided to refuse your request for information which
relates to relevant benefit documents under section 9(2)(a) of the Official Information Act
1982 (OIA) to protect the privacy of natural persons as benefits may be negotiated by staff
on an individual basis.
In preparing this information release, ENZ has considered the public interest considerations in
section 9(1) of the Official Information Act.
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision.
Information about how to make a complaint is available at

contact details will be removed from this response before it is published on our website.
