Looking for a role where no two days are the same?

We’re on the lookout for a proactive and organised Office Administrator to support our team on the Ōtaki to North of Levin project.

This is a full-time, permanent role based in the Kapiti region – you will need to be able to travel to Manakau outside of Ōtaki.

  • Managing office resources, equipment, and supplies
  • Preparing documents, reports, and data entry
  • Handling scanning, filing, invoicing, and database updates
  • Identifying potential delays or bottlenecks and keeping things on track
  • Jumping in to help wherever needed — this is a varied, hands-on role

What you’ll bring:

  • 1–2+ years’ experience in an administrative role
  • Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach
  • A proactive, “can-do” attitude
  • Confidence using Microsoft Office (Word formatting, Excel, etc.)
  • Ability to manage deadlines in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong communication skills and initiative
  • Full NZ driver’s licence

Why join us?
