About the role
We’re looking for an Office and Membership Administrator to play a key role in supporting AIANZ’s members, operations, and leadership team. Based in our Wellington CBD office, you’ll be the go-to person for day-to-day office administration, member engagement, and communication across our national network.

As part of a small, dedicated team, you’ll bring energy, initiative, and great people skills to ensure everything runs smoothly - from managing membership renewals and updating our CRM to keeping our website and social media fresh and engaging.

What you’ll do

  • Be the first point of contact for members and general enquiries.
  • Manage membership systems - including applications, renewals, and our member database.
  • Support communications through newsletters, website updates, and social media content.
  • Provide administrative support to the Chief Executive, Executive Officers, Accountant, and Council.
  • Coordinate logistics for meetings and events, including Council meetings, travel and catering.
  • Work with our IT provider to maintain systems and troubleshoot issues.
  • Help ensure our operations run efficiently and professionally every day.

About you
You’re organised, proactive, and thrive in a small team where everyone pitches in. You have strong attention to detail and enjoy helping others - whether it’s a member query, a system update, or planning the next Council meeting.

You’ll also bring:

  • Experience in office or membership administration, ideally in a professional or membership-based organisation.
  • Tech confidence – proficiency with MS Office, Zoho, WordPress, CRM systems, and social media platforms.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • A positive, solutions-focused attitude and the ability to manage competing priorities.
  • Eligibility to work in New Zealand.
