Audit New Zealand carries out annual audits of public entities on behalf of the Auditor-General. It operates a professional services model that is consistent – in many respects – with private sector auditing and assurance firms.

We're looking for an experienced Executive Assistant to provide proficient and effective administrative and secretarial support to Audit Directors and Audit Managers.

The role involves a variety of work, including:

• proactive diary management;

• preparing client documentation, in keeping with our corporate style and format;

• organising and supporting meetings and events;

• delivering timely and highly professional administrative support;

• file management; and

• co-ordinating and managing travel.

To be eligible for this role, you'll have proven work experience providing executive administrative support for people in leadership/managerial positions, preferably in a professional services organisation. You'll bring to this role:

• strong self-management and organisational abilities;

• the flexibility and adaptability to prioritise and handle multiple pieces of work simultaneously;

• excellent interpersonal and relationship management skills;

• effective oral and written communication skills;

• a strong customer focus and time-management skills;

• an ability to work efficiently under pressure and maintain a positive and flexible attitude;

• advanced computer software skills and experience working with a range of business systems; and

• the ability to work collaboratively as part of a team, with a results-focused approach to ensure that deadlines are met.

You'll get to work with great people who are committed to what they do.
