Hastings, New Zealand Summerset Full time

**Company Description**
Summerset is one of New Zealand's fastest growing companies and the third largest retirement village operator in the country. We design, build and operate retirement village's right across New Zealand. We are proud of our dynamic work environment and an equally diverse workforce.

At Summerset we are here to bring the best of life to our residents. To do this, we know we need to take care of our people to form a team who are strong enough to care, operate as one team, and strive to do their best.

We are looking for an exceptional Village Assistant to join our team at our** Hastings** Village. This is a casual position providing village cover, reporting directly to the Village Manager.

Our Village Assistant is in many ways the face of our business and as such you need to be able to relate to a wide range of people, especially the elderly and their families. The Village Assistant role provides great diversity, therefore you would provide a degree of both operational and administrative cover. This role is responsible for being the first point of contact for all Village related matters whilst on duty.

Shifts that we would need your help to cover are evenings (16:00-22:00), nights (22:00-08:00) and weekend days (08:00-17:00).

**Nightshift**: This is an "awake" role in which you will be sole-charge whilst on duty and be required to respond to any emergency situations which may arise. You will also carry out a range of tasks such as cleaning/ housekeeping tasks as required.

At Summerset we value your presentation and customer service ethic as much as the technical skills you bring to the team - our culture is what sets us apart You are expected to be actively interested in the "look and feel" of the Village. This is accomplished within the context of ensuring that the residents feel supported and secure, and enjoy living within Summerset's Villages.
**Additional Information**

The safety of our residents and staff is important to us. For this reason, it is recommended that all our employees are fully vaccinated against Covid-19 before commencing work at Summerset.
