This is a busy role and requires someone who can manage diaries, time, and competing priorities with a positive approach and open communication.

We build and service some of the largest and most complex buildings and construction projects in the country.

**He kōrero mōu | About you**

You will be an experienced** Executive Assistant or Personal Assistant** who has partnered with a director or with senior managers in a busy environment in the past. We are looking for you to think beyond the next action, and to be strategic in your thinking.

You do not need specific qualifications, but you will need to be able to speak to your experience of diary management, calendar management, minute taking, room and travel booking, event coordination, and document proofing and editing. It would be an added benefit if you consider yourself skilled at enhancing presentations.

**Ideally, you will**:

- Be experienced in action point minute taking and, to a lesser extent, full minute taking
- Be resourceful and skilled at finding new information, acquiring new skills and getting answers
- Be a skilled copywriter/proofreader with Microsoft Office skills, and the ability to enhance documents and presentations
- Consider yourself an excellent problem solver, collaborator and someone who enjoys developing efficiencies and process improvements
- Be skilled at negotiation and politely guiding others to ensure all stakeholders are well supported and get what they need in a way that is sustainable for your time.

**Ngā āhuatanga kei a mātou | What we offer**

We offer our staff more than just a job, we provide them with an opportunity to be part of a dynamic, world class organisation which provides staff with benefits and support throughout their lives and careers.

The University is committed to providing an excellent working environment through:

- Up to **6.75% company superannuation scheme**:

- We realise your time is important to you, so we offer a range of leave entitlements, including **five weeks annual leave a year **and the option to buy and sell leave

- Your happiness and wellbeing at work is important to us, so we also offer career development programmes, discounted car parking, a generous parental leave allowance, childcare and a number of other discount
