Work With Us
At Maverick we love to see people punching above their weight. If you think you have what it takes and are interested in joining the team, contact us.The story of Maverick Digital.
It all started in a sparse hostel in Rio de Janeiro back in 2014. Between caipirinhas and capoeira Alex would help with digital strategy for tourism operators; a natural continuation of her years spent at Tourism NZ (the digital stuff, not the capoeira). The remote work continued in between Amazon jungle exploring, and when Alex saw a surf doco on California’s Mavericks, something clicked. Embracing direct sales through digital was a scary move for most tourism operators. Nearly as ballsy as dropping in on a big wave at Mavericks.
Six years later and Maverick Digital is all grown up, with a colourful office full of digital gurus in Auckland. Helping the tourism industry harness the power of digital is a wickedly fun day job. Nearly as fun as the caipirinha Fridays.
