What a great community that has so many capable, experiences and community focused individuals who want to work with us to make Karori a really great place to live and be part of.. It was a REALLY tough decision ....



Karori Community Centre - Job-share fixed term position – about 12 hours per week

We are looking for a customer focused person, with lots of initiative and the ability to learn quickly, to job-share the Office Coordinator role.

This is a fixed term position starting asap until about 20 December 2024. Flexibility with your hours would be helpful, and if you can work more hours occasionally (to a max of about 25), that would be an advantage, usually between 9am and 3pm.

In the New Year a permanent part-time role will be coming available.

You will be part of a small, close-knit team and ensure our community users have a warm, inspiring, helpful experience. No two days are ever the same.

You will help ensure the office is run effectively, manage bookings, invoicing, the cleaning contract, coordinate minor building repairs and ensure Health and Safety procedures are in place. You will have great Microsoft skills. Ideally you would also be familiar with Xero and have social media skills, or be prepared to learn.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
