We are seeking an enthusiastic and well-organised person with a strong administrative background to fill the role of Office Manager in our school office. The school is located in the heart of Ngaio. With strong community support and a team of dedicated staff, Ngaio School offers an excellent collegial working environment

Key to the role is the ability to multitask and prioritise, as you handle queries from visitors, parents, and staff and complete a varied range of task-based work. . This front desk role also deals with accounts payable, payroll, school donation processing, and other general administration duties. Caring for our students is a key part of this role, as you attend to their numerous queries and support them when they need first-aid care.
