Job Description

He angituutanga: The opportunity

Some people are at their best when there are multiple deadlines, plenty of moving parts and a team that relies on them to bring order to it all.

If that sounds like you, this could be a great next step.

As Portfolio Administrator, you’ll be at the heart of IAWAI’s Portfolio Office. You’ll coordinate the recurring rhythms that keep the office working effectively, from reporting deadlines and governance meetings to action tracking, document control.

This could suit an experienced administrator who wants to step into a proactive role making the most of strong coordination, organisation and communication skills.

You’ll need to be comfortable following things through, keeping accurate records, managing competing priorities and politely making sure people deliver what they said they would. Strong Microsoft 365 skills and around 3 to 5 years’ relevant administration experience will give you a good foundation.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
