• Auckland based EA opportunity supporting our Chief Brand and Purpose Officer
• Key role supporting a new Executive member for a newly formed business unit
• Take your next step in your EA career in a role that will be busy and varied in a flexible environment where you can make clear impact

This is us. Where you matter.

Making a difference for all Kiwi starts with making a difference for our people. Flexibility, growth, challenging and rewarding work – this is Kiwibank. A place where you can belong and thrive – we are as ambitious as we are caring. We have big ideas and big plans. For you, for Kiwibank and for all Kiwi.

This is us. Where making an impact matters.

Roles like this don’t come up often. Join us at Kiwibank to provide key EA support to our new Chief Brand and Purpose Officer (CPBO). The Purpose and Brand team includes purpose, sustainability, customer experience, brand and marketing, corporate affairs and māori advisory teams and is focused on connecting our customers and our people to our purpose and brand.

This pivotal role in the team will play a strong part in managing how the function runs successfully, ensuring strong cadence, effective communication and planning cycles and alignment to broader enterprise requirements.

Along with the usual EA responsibilities, key to this role will be balancing the interactions between the CPBO and internal and external stakeholders, using your instincts, skills and experience to achieve that balancing act in a role central to supporting Kiwibank to deliver on our purpose.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a newly formed business unit of existing teams as they embark on an exciting new chapter together, while supporting a key new Executive member in a role where you will have clear purpose and impact.

This is us. Where your expertise matters.

At Kiwibank, we will help you build on your strengths and learn new skills, but in the meantime, we would love to hear from you if you have a mix of the following:

• Current or previous experience as a Personal or Executive Assistant including diary and inbox management, travel arrangements and planning and arranging team events and meetings
• Natural instinct to understand priorities and manage stakeholders accordingly, while building effective relationships at all levels in the organisation
• Ability to manage both yours and the CPBO’s time expectations while being flexible to juggle meetings and priorities when the unexpected comes up
• Demonstration of absolute discretion with confidential information and market sensitive data, and ability to apply good judgement where needed
• Strong use of MS Office products as you will contribute, prepare and provide presentations, documents and reports including supporting the preparation of board reports
• Excellent communication skills and curiosity to seek to understand and add value, with strong relationship management skills across all levels
• High level of attention to detail, strong administrative, organisation, co-ordination and planning skills
• Someone who has a feel for culture, bringing people together and can bring a sense of humour and fun will be highly sought after as we bring this function together

You do not need to tick every box here to be considered! Over and above, we are looking for someone who embodies Kiwibank’s purpose and Nga Kauwaka, and someone who thrives in a fun and supportive work environment. If you only meet some of the criteria you think is essential for success in this role given your experience then we would still love to hear from you.

Apply Now – applications close Monday 12 June.

This is us. Where you and your whānau matter.
