Office Administrator - Part time (Starting Jan 2026)

Palmerston North

Looking for a role that fits around school runs, real life, and a team that genuinely values people?

This part-time opportunity is perfect for someone who enjoys variety, connection, and being the go-to person who keeps things running smoothly. You’ll be our first point of contact for visitors and callers, supporting our project managers and business support team across a wide range of tasks — no two days are the same!

What you'll do:

Welcome clients and answer calls with a professional, friendly approach.

  • Support project managers with administrative tasks
  • Enter data, timesheets, and assist with monthly invoicing
  • Follow up on debtors and help with financial reporting
  • Support project teams with resource consent and engineering drawings.
  • Manage office errands (stationery orders, tea room supplies, PO Box, etc.)

About You:

  • Experienced in office or client service roles
  • Confident, organised, and great with people — in person and on the phone
  • Strong attention to detail and comfortable with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)
  • Positive, proactive, and happy to pitch in wherever needed
  • Full driver’s licence
  • A good sense of humour (a must around here!)

We’re after someone reliable, approachable, and happy to keep the team organised. This role would suit someone seeking school hours or a flexible part-time position.

Hours:

16–20 hours per week
Proposed hours: Monday–Thursday, 9.30am–2.30pm (flexible for the right person)
Occasional extra hours may be available to cover annual leave

What we offer:

  • A genuinely family-friendly culture
  • A supportive, social team that looks out for one another
  • Excellent work–life balance
  • Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
  • Subsidised fortnightly massages, discounted health insurance and gym memberships, and free flu jabs — because we actually care about your wellbeing
