Kōrero mō te tūranga | About the role
Not only is this role based in one of the most beautiful regions in Aotearoa, but it’s also part of a pretty special team, one that fosters growth and development and supports each other to do meaningful work (with great senses of humour to boot)!
We’re on the hunt for someone who can provide administrative services and operational support to our Hydro sites. As a Business Support Coordinator, you are often the first point of contact for our customers (visitors, contractors, or our employees) whether it’s in person where you will welcome our visitors and staff, on the phone or via email. You go above and beyond with everyone you interact with and strive to provide the ultimate customer service experience.
This role is the perfect mix of administration and operations support. Day to day you’ll provide administration support. You’ll assist with things like; onboarding new employees, reporting, travel and accommodation bookings, minute taking and word processing, event management, purchase of office supplies and expense/invoice management using our SAP accounting system.
As for Operations support, you’ll be responsible for issuing security passes and monitoring site access during business hours. You’ll also maintain office equipment and organise maintenance or repairs when required.
Ko wai koe | About you
You'll be that person in the office others describe as a superstar, you’re a machine with admin, awesome with customers, constantly thinking ahead and the type to offer a hand when you see something that needs doing. You bring great energy to work, the type that makes people feel valued and shines in all that you do, and you’re a pro at multitasking, comfortable juggling priorities and working to deadlines. If something doesn’t go to plan, you’re quick to change tact and come up with a plan B, taking care to keep relevant people in the loop. In fact, you do that with everything – communication is one of your strong points.
You’ll need to manage expenses and invoices using our SAP accounting system and have strong skills around document management , so experience doing this would be awesome, but not a deal-breaker – we’re happy to train you. We do need to see some admin experience though, and we’d love to get a feel from your application for how you tend to communicate and present things at work.
Above all, you’re a team player, someone who takes great pride in their mahi and helps make work a fun place to be.
