Christchurch, New Zealand Summerset Full time

**Company Description**:
**You can help bring our villages to life**

At Summerset, from the moment we start developing a village, to when our residents call it home, it’s the passion and dedication of our people that brings our villages to life. We are one team united by being part of something bigger - to bring the best of life to our residents.

The way we work is guided by our values - One Team, Strong Enough to Care and Strive to Be the Best. We know it takes a collective effort to bring a village to life and help it thrive, so Summerset is a place where everyone’s uniqueness and diversity can shine.

We are looking for an energetic and creative Activities Coordinator to join our **Avonhead Village**. Ideally you will have experience in events, hospitality or aged care, but more important to us will be your genuine love for all kinds of people from all walks of life.

You will need to be kind, patient and have great communication skills, while a good level of fitness will prove useful for delivering the best exercise programmes, regular outings, sporting and recreational events.

**To recognise the important work that you do for our residents, we offer**:

- an enthusiastic and supportive team that is fun to be part of
- health cover (if applicable), social sporting teams and discounts at a range of suppliers plus much more.

If you, or someone you know, are strong enough to care, then we would love to hear from you.

- Good written communication skills that target the audience and medium appropriately
- Strong organisation skills, ability to multi-task
