Mangere Bridge, New Zealand Matthews Packaging & Hygiene Full time

Marketing Assistant Role

Matthews Packaging & Hygiene is a trusted, family-owned Kiwi business supplying high-quality packaging and hygiene solutions across New Zealand. We're known for great service, strong relationships, and a team culture that genuinely has each other's backs.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for a Marketing Assistant to work alongside our Marketing Manager and Graphic Designer. This is an all-rounder role perfect for someone with a go-getting attitude, who's reliable, organised, and keen to learn. Experience is preferred, but not essential. Attitude and effort matter most.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll support the marketing team across a mix of coordination, content, and day-to-day marketing tasks, including:

  • Assisting with planning and scheduling content across social platforms
  • Helping create and write social posts, captions, EDMs, and simple website updates
  • Supporting the Marketing Manager with campaigns, product launches, and seasonal promotions
  • Coordinating product information, internal updates, and basic marketing admin (keeping files organised, updating lists, tracking deadlines)
  • Assisting with website content updates (product pages, banners, basic edits)
  • Supporting product photography (prep, shot lists, organising products, liaising with contractors)
  • Working with sales and the wider team to help keep branding and messaging consistent
  • General support across marketing tasks as needed—no two days will look the same

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who's keen, capable, and dependable. Ideally you'll have:

  • A positive, can-do attitude and willingness to jump in and help
  • Strong organisation and time management (you'll be juggling priorities)
  • Confidence communicating with team members, suppliers, and contractors
  • Good written skills
  • Good understanding of social media and digital marketing (training provided)

Bonus skills (but not required):

  • Experience using tools like Meta Business Suite, Mailchimp/Klaviyo, Canva and Adobeprograms
  • A basic understanding of websites
  • Previous admin or coordination experience in a busy environment

Please Note:

This is a full-time, on-site role based at our Mangere head office. We require attendance at the office Monday to Friday. Due to the hands-on and collaborative nature of our work, being physically present with the team is essential, this role does not have flexibility to work remotely or from home. It ensures you're immersed in our products, projects, and people - allowing your creative work to have genuine impact in our fast-paced environment.

Why Join Us?

  • Free lunches every day
  • A supportive, tight-knit team in a family-owned business
  • Real opportunities to grow your marketing skills and career
  • Staff discounts on hygiene and packaging products
  • Free onsite parking

How to Apply

If you're an energetic all-rounder who loves getting stuck in, we'd love to hear from you. Apply with your CV and a short cover letter about why this role suits you (and include any examples of marketing/content work if you have them).
