Host Pou Tiaki

1 week ago

Lower Hutt, New Zealand Hutt City Council Full time

Available at short notice
- Confident and outgoing, working across our amazing hubs & libraries
- Having a driver licence and personal vehicle is preferred

**About the role**

We are looking for multiple people to join us as casual Pou Tiaki (Hosts) to provide additional resource to our neighbourhood hubs on an ad hoc basis, as and when required. These roles are specifically to ensure continuity on sites, providing cover when staff are on leave.

The role of the Pou Tiaki is to be the friendly and welcoming face at our various facilities providing information and support to our customers. You'll be the connection between us and the customers, assisting with a variety of things including venue hire, library services, events, and functions, general enquires and other ad hoc duties.

We are looking for those interested in working across the city at our various Neighbourhood Hubs & Libraries locations:

- Eastbourne
- Kōraunui Stokes Valley
- Moerā
- Naenae
- Petone
- Wainuiomata
- Walter Nash Centre
- War Memorial

These roles provide plenty of variety in terms of location and nature of work so you can really make them your own - as long as you come with a positive attitude and willingness to help, you will thrive in this environment. The work we do is community-focused and meaningful which in turn provides a great training ground to build your experience and people skills.

This is a great opportunity to be connected to your community while having the flexibility to work when it suits you - we are always looking for those keen to lend their skills to keep our facilities ticking.

**About You**

You are reliable and are available at short notice, between 08:30 - 18:30 on weekdays and 09:30 - 18:30 on weekends, appreciating that you will have commitments outside of work, however, would generally be available when needed. Some venues (War Memorial and Walter Nash Centre) have late nights or events that run later into the evening, and you may be occasionally asked to work these shifts.

**About Us**

At Hutt City Council our vision is to build a connected, resilient and inclusive city where all of our people thrive - Kia noho mai tēnei tāone hei pou herenga waka, hei pou herenga kaupapa, hei wāhi whai hua ki hōna iwi.

Our council has set out a bold and ambitious plan for us to achieve. We work hard to deliver the best outcomes for our communities, are flexible in our approach, and we're committed to creating an inclusive and progressive work environment for our staff.

**Applications close 11:55pm on Sunday 19 October 2025.**
