Working at AUT
AUT is where curious, driven people come to do work that matters. Teaching that inspires. Research that lands in the world. Professional expertise that keeps a great university moving forward.
AUT is led by people who back good ideas wherever they come from. Our strategy, Te Kete, sets a clear direction – and whatever your role, you're part of delivering it.
Our values – pono, tika and aroha – aren't on a poster. You feel them in how decisions get made, in how people show up for each other, and in work fuelled by real purpose.
For academics
If you want to teach with purpose and see your research make a real difference, AUT is built for that. Teaching is valued as highly as research output, and you'll have the freedom to build work that matters.
For professional staff
At AUT, professional staff keep a complex, ambitious university running well — and moving forward. If you want your work to connect directly to something that matters, this is the right place.
