Company Description

At sKids, we believe childhood should be full of laughter, learning, and adventure! Since 1996, we’ve been creating awesome out-of-school experiences for Ta-mariki across New Zealand. Today, we welcome more than 3,800 kids every day at over 170 school sites – and we’re still growing!

When you work with us, you get to unleash your inner child. Think: messy art, science experiments, sports showdowns, cooking classes, and plenty of silly games. No two days are the same – and that’s how we like it!

As an Assistant Programme Manager, you’ll be the friendly face that makes the mornings & afternoons unforgettable for children. You’ll be working a minimum of 10 hours per week, rostered across Monday to Friday

Here’s what you’ll be up to

  • Support the Programme Manager in the day-to-day running of the sKids programme, helping ensure smooth, well-structured operations
  • Step up as 2IC – confidently lead sessions and take charge when the Programme Manager is away
  • Supervise and engage large groups of tamariki, ensuring a safe, inclusive, and fun environment at all times
  • Assist in planning and delivering structured activities including arts & crafts, sports, games, and offsite trips
  • Support with managing challenging behaviour, using positive guidance strategies and maintaining consistency across the team
  • Help guide and support Programme Assistants on shift, ensuring expectations are met and activities run smoothly
  • Build positive relationships with parents, caregivers, and school staff through clear and friendly communication
  • Assist with set-up, pack-down, and preparation of resources to ensure each session runs seamlessly

  • Work-life balance – no weekend work and the middle of the day free for your own time
  • Employee Assistance Programme – access wellbeing support when you need it
  • A fun, supportive crew who love what they do and celebrate each other’s wins

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.
