Timaru, New Zealand Timaru District Council Full time

**The District**

Timaru District is a thriving and innovative community. It is the central hub for the South Island, servicing a large agricultural heartland, with a growing economy that provides the import and export gateway for primary sectors. We boast a Top 10 most loved beach in New Zealand and have access to mountains, rivers and lakes, making Timaru an ideal destination for recreational, sporting and cultural pursuits.

Let’s not forget about that 7 minute commute to work

**The Organisation**

The Timaru District Council aims to enable democratic local decision-making and action by, and on behalf of communities, to promote the social, economic, environmental, and cultural well-being of its communities in the present and for the future. With around 400 employees, there are a diverse range of roles from community-facing to support and technical specialists.

**The Role**

We are looking for an administration extraordinaire to provide quality executive and administrative support within the Governance and Executive Support Team.

The position will have a broad focus across the organisation, assisting with operational and governance tasks, while coordinating the completion of business-critical projects and enhancements.

**The Person**

This exciting role requires someone who is always a step ahead, pre-empting what is required, and has a forward-thinking approach. Your attention to detail is second to none, and when it comes to juggling multiple priorities - you have it covered. You will be someone who is pragmatic, works well collaboratively, and has strong interpersonal skills.

Your ‘can do’ attitude and excellent organisation skills are a must in this dynamic and ever-evolving environment. You will be highly professional, reliable, and work well under pressure. Your MS Office skills are in a class all of their own, and you’re a whizz at drafting correspondence, proofreading, and calendar management.

Your ability to communicate appropriately to a variety of internal and external stakeholders, including the general public is essential.

If this aligns with you, your experience, and your skills, we’d love to hear from you
