Administrative Assistant (Part-Time)

We're looking for an experienced and adaptable Administrative Assistant to join our Christchurch office, reporting to the Administration & Facilities Team Lead.

This is a varied, hands-on role at the heart of a fast-moving aerospace business. You'll help keep our office running smoothly by supporting day-to-day administration, workplace operations, and creating a professional experience for our team and visitors.

No two days are the same. One moment you could be preparing for an important customer visit, the next updating key Excel trackers, coordinating office supplies, or helping deliver a team event. If you enjoy variety, take pride in the details, and are happy rolling up your sleeves wherever needed, you'll fit right in.

What you'll do

• Deliver a professional front-of-house experience, welcoming everyone from new starters to senior leaders, customers and international visitors.
• Support the day-to-day running of the office, including workplace presentation, meeting room preparation, kitchen and shared spaces, office supplies, and facilities coordination.
• Maintain accurate records, documentation, and Excel-based tracking systems.
• Assist with onboarding and offboarding, team events, meetings, and internal initiatives.
• Provide day-to-day administrative support to the Administration & Facilities Team Lead, helping ensure the office operates efficiently.
• Work collaboratively across the business, adapting to changing priorities and stepping in wherever support is needed.

About you

You're someone people can rely on. You enjoy creating a well-run workplace, take pride in delivering a high standard of work, and understand that the small details often make the biggest difference.

You'll bring:

• Previous experience in an administrative, office support, or similar role.
• Strong Excel skills and confidence maintaining spreadsheets, trackers, and administrative systems.
• Excellent organisational skills and exceptional attention to detail.
• A calm, professional approach, with the confidence to interact with senior leaders, customers, and visitors.
• Resilience and adaptability-you stay organised when priorities change and enjoy solving problems in a fast-paced environment.
• A proactive mindset. You take initiative, work well independently, and know when to seek guidance or support.
• A willingness to contribute to both the larger projects and the everyday tasks that keep the workplace running smoothly. Whether you're preparing a meeting room for a VIP visit, organising catering, restocking supplies, or supporting the wider team, you understand that every detail contributes to a great workplace experience.

Why join us?

You'll be joining a collaborative team supporting an innovative aerospace company where your work has a genuine impact every day.

If you enjoy variety, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and take pride in helping others succeed through exceptional administration and workplace support, we'd love to hear from you.
