We are looking for an executive assistant superstar to provide high quality support to the General Manager Safe, Strong Families and Communities.

 About this role 

We are seeking an experienced Executive Assistant who understands what it's like working in a busy, dynamic and complex environment.   Reporting to the General Manager Safe, Strong Families and Communities, which sits within Māori, Communities and Partnerships Group, you'll provide a full range of executive support services where your days are varied and the team are fun. 

This opportunity will suit a self-managing professional who is comfortable juggling multiple deadlines, across multiple managers and easily build rapport.  Your primary focus will be to provide daily organising and time management and prepare documentation for the General Manager, as well as organise internal and external stakeholder meetings for the wider team. Whether you're arranging travel bookings or attending stakeholder meetings, you'll do it all with your natural flair and unflappable manner.

We offer a collaborative team environment, flexible working and the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of all New Zealanders.
