After relying on questionable advice about the legality of its spying on kiwis over the last decade, spy agency the GCSB is looking for new legal advisers, but is hardly paying top dollar for them.
The bureau is currently advertising for a legal adviser and a senior legal adviser, saying it is looking to increase the size of its legal team and has a number of newly created positions.
The legal adviser's job description is to "assist in the provision of timely high quality legal advice on all matters relating to the operational and administrative activities of the Bureau".
However the job pays just $58,258 to $72,823.
Public Service Association National Secretary Brenda Pilott said the pay rate was not a great deal of money given the specialist legal advice likely to be expected of the successful candidate.
