Job Description

We're looking for an experienced administrator available now who enjoys a wide variety of tasks.

You'll be responsible for Board meeting minutes; support team members with grantmaking and other software; assist the Chief Executive in her role; manage calendars; suggest ways we can do things better; and keep us in stationery - amongst other things!

This will be a busy position in a role that has sat vacant for a while. Therefore we need someone experienced, with positive energy, who will hit the ground running to support the wider team in its interactions with community organisations, stakeholders and its Board of trustees.

We're passionate about what we do, therefore we're looking for someone with interest in our mahi, which is distributing grants to community groups doing amazing work across the Wellington region. 

We distribute approximately $2 million in grants each year through:

  • He Rau Aroha which supports Māori-led groups advancing Māori aspirations for Mana Whenua and Taura Here, and 
  • General Grants which funds social services supporting communities experiencing inequity, exclusion, and disadvantage.

This is a contract role until July 31 and we're looking for someone who can start pretty much immediately. The workload is full time but for the right candidate we're happy to discuss a 0.8FTE role. Please indicate in your covering letter if you prefer a 0.8FTE.
