Business Support Assistant 

Diversity Works New Zealand is New Zealand’s national body for workplace diversity and inclusion.  We help organisations do workplace inclusion well and do well because of it.  We understand that diversity creates a more productive, creative and dynamic society.  It also improves our ability to see and connect with the world around us.  Diversity goes well beyond “gender.”  It is “inclusive” and embraces differences in ethnicity, sexuality, spirituality and age. 

We are currently recruiting for the role of Business Support Assistant to join our team.  This role is varied, and we are looking for someone with a ‘can do’ attitude that is not afraid to try something new.   You will be responsible for providing administrative support to the leadership and wider teams.  Being highly organised is key as you will be scheduling meetings for both internal and external stakeholders, also supporting the team at events, liaising with suppliers, or even taking notes at meetings.

You will also provide other administration support through preparing expense claims, assisting with presentations and agendas, while taking ownership of keeping the office running smoothly which ranges from facilities management to ordering stationary. 

This role deals with numerous stakeholders, so your ability to prioritise will be key to success.  Your organisational skills will be second to none and you will have outstanding written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work to deadlines.

This is an exiting time to join our team, and this role offers real opportunity for growth and learning.  You will join an organisation that is making a real difference to Diversity and Inclusion in New Zealand and where the team have flexible working as an option.
