Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand New Zealand Government Full time
Ko mātou tēnei | Who we are
Te Komihana Tauhokohoko | The Commerce Commission is New Zealand's competition, fair trading, consumer credit and economic regulatory agency.

Our mission is to make New Zealanders better off by ensuring our markets work well and consumers and businesses are confident participants in those markets.

We are looking for a dynamic Executive Assistant to join our Infrastructure Regulation branch. You will be supporting two Senior Managers in this Branch, providing exceptional executive assistant support to them.

Are you reading this ad online having charged up your laptop? Maybe even while sitting in an airport lounge? These everyday actions are supported by the critical infrastructure we regulate in the Infrastructure branch - namely fibre broadband internet, electricity lines, gas pipelines, and the three major international airports.

Our work is for you, the consumer, and our rules and regulations keep a lid on excessive profits and help ensure businesses deliver the services you demand by providing the right incentives for them to perform.

Mō te tūranga | About the role

In this busy and varied role you will ensure the Managers are set for success everyday through your strong coordination and organisational skills.

This is a role where your ability to pick up systems and processes quickly, build strong relationships across both the branch and organisation, and connect with the work the branch does, will be truly valued.

Our teams operate in a fast-paced project-based environment so the ability to effortlessly juggle a busy workload and multiple activities is critical.

You will be a team player who can interact with a diverse group of people at all levels and confidently contribute to the discussion.

He kōrero mōu | About you

To be successful in this role you will:

  • Be able to anticipate needs and navigate the challenges of always being two steps ahead of everyone else
  • Provide exceptional administrative support using your initiative and sound judgement
  • Use your welldeveloped problemsolving skills to find effective solutions
  • Build a good understanding of the branch priorities and ways of working and be proactive in identifying areas for improvement
  • You may not have been an EA before, but you're tech savvy, supremely organised, adaptable, and willing to learn. You communicate well and are responsive to needs.

Te wāhi mahi | Working here
We're friendly and collaborative and enjoy contributing to our shared vision of making New Zealanders better off. Career growth and development is not only supported and encouraged, it's a part of everyday life here.

We also offer a range of benefits to show that we'll value your mahi, including generous leave entitlements, study support, a range of wellness initiatives and competitive remuneration.

We are committed to our people's wellbeing. Any support needed is freely given, providing the opportunity for everyone to thrive.

Our flexible working options are key to supporting that goal and our people have the technology they need to make it happen.

We even offer a contribution to working from home set up costs.

Our environment is inclusive, and our people know they are free to be their authentic selves at work and structure the way they work to suit their lifestyle.

Ka pēhea te tono mai | How to apply

Our recruitment process is fair, inclusive and free from bias and we encourage our applicants to let us know if we can make it more user friendly for them.

We are an equal opportunity employer. We value diverse perspectives and the contribution every one of our people makes to our culture. Put simply - you can be yourself here.
