Dont forget the US$ conversion to NZ$. I am from Australia originally and
it seems that in the US there is a extremely wide variation in the pay
scales in Museum positions, most of it seems random after a while!
Enterprise bargaining is the standard practice and there is a range, but
compared to wage structures like NZ and AUS, it is very different. I really
don't think NZ could pay its staff too much.

I'm hoping that this a part-time position! Even in the world of
not-for-profits (perhaps *especially* in the world of not-for-profts!),
Development Director is traditionally a high-paid (well, relative to other
positions within the non-profit world...) position.  In my experience,
Development Assistance salaries start at this range ($18K - $22K), with
Development Associates in the $24 K -$28 K range and Development Directors
starting at $30K-some and going as high as $60K - $80K depending on the
size
of the non-profit.
