Events & Office Coordinator

Do you have a heart for families and a head for details?

FamilyLife New Zealand is on a mission to effectively develop godly families who change the world one home at a time. We exist to help families grow together and impact their corner of the world.

We are seeking a highly organised Events and Office Coordinator to join our team in Rosedale. This is a pivotal “behind the scenes” role that ensures our life-changing events run smoothly and our ministry operations are efficient.

About the Role:
Reporting to the Executive Director, you will be the engine room of our administration, managing the end-to-end logistics that allow our ministry to flourish.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Event Management: Liaising with venues, securing contracts, managing registrations, and overseeing logistics like travel and equipment.
• Volunteer Support: Training volunteers on conference set-up and providing them with clear instruction guides.

• Office Administration: responding to customer inquiries, arranging mailouts, and maintaining office supplies.

To succeed in this role, you will need:

• An exceptional eye for detail and strong organisational skills.
• The ability to work well both independently and as part of a close-knit team.
• Flexibility to travel occasionally for events and work some weekends (with days in lieu provided).

A Unique Ministry Opportunity

This is more than just an admin job; it is a vocational ministry position. As part of the FamilyLife team, you will participate in regular culture-building initiatives and help facilitate FamilyLife small groups.

Because this role involves sharing in the spiritual leadership and mission of FamilyLife, alignment with FamilyLife’s Christian mission and values is essential.

Purpose: The opportunity to use your skills to help every home become a godly home.
