Business and Project Coordinator

Jora New Zealand will close on 9th September 2026. Thank you for being with us, we are cheering you on as you continue your career journey. This is a unique opportunity to work closely with the owner of a small group of businesses across construction, property and other developing ventures. The primary focus of this role is helping bring organisation, structure and follow-through to the day-to-day running of the businesses with a hands on approach. You'll assist with administration, reporting, financial information, systems and general business coordination, helping ensure important tasks don't get missed and opportunities are followed through. Because we are involved in several different businesses, this role will suit someone who enjoys variety and learning new things. While the core of the role is business support and organisation, there will also be opportunities to get involved in practical areas of the businesses - such as helping develop the compact crane business, speaking with potential customers, assisting with marketing and ideally learning to operate machinery like the compact crane. This is not a traditional office role. It is a chance to work closely with a business owner, gain exposure to how businesses are built and improved, and play an important part in helping turn ideas into reality.
