RMG is committed to providing resolution to issues from dissatisfied customers, directed to the Office of the Commissioner, the Minister of Revenue, or the Office of the Ombudsmen.
Being able to fulfil the leadership expectations of an Inland Revenue leader is a requirement, as is the ability to demonstrate a high degree of organisational and political awareness.

You will contribute to this by identifying areas of learning from the work undertaken by your team, and escalating these as required, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of RMG, and the wider organisation.
We are seeking a self-motivated individual who has courage, embraces change and can cultivate an environment where people enjoy their work and gain satisfaction from what they do.
You will be required to undertake the following responsibilities:
- Leading and supporting a team of six professionals ensuring that the responses to official correspondence are timely and of a high quality.
- Establishing and maintaining effective relationships with key internal and external stakeholders.
- As a member of RMG's management team you will contribute to developing and delivering the group's vision and business strategies. This will involve identifying business risks and opportunities, and supporting or challenging your colleagues' decisions and proposals.

- Highly developed communication skills.
- People management and leadership skills.
