Coordinator - Information Support

Coordinator – Information Support

• Fantastic administration/coordination role in a close-knit team
• Be a part of a team that does incredibly interesting work
• Not your average Coordinator role!

We’re seeking an experienced Coordinator to join the Te Mana Whakaatu – Classification Office. You’ll have a range of work that will see you engage right across this small team whose work is vitally important in empowering New Zealanders to watch content in a positive way while safeguarding them from harm.

About Us

Te Mana Whakaatu – Classification Office is an independent Crown Entity responsible for classifying material such as films, TV shows, streaming content, magazines, games, computer files, and images. Our work helps maintain the important balance between freedom of expression and protection from harm. We work with law enforcement agencies, streaming service providers and traditional entertainment media.

We actively engage with and inform the public, providing research services, disseminating information, public presentations, and enquiry response.

About the Role

As our Coordinator – Information Support you’ll be a key member of our team, engaging with stakeholders as material comes into the Office, coordinate queries and responses for information, assist in record and data maintenance and provide administrative support.

Your work week will see you processing submissions for classification, preparing publications for examination and storage, loading and processing data, coordinating inquiries and complaints about publications/material (both general and OIA based), and providing administrative assistance in a range of areas.

Each of these areas has its own level of intricacy which you’ll fully immerse yourself in, and you’ll apply your initiative and coordination skills across all aspects.

You’ll be working in an environment that’s embracing change and process improvement and be a contributor to that.

About You

We’re seeking a Coordinator who has:

• experience in an administration or coordination role
• strong organisational skills including the ability to triage, prioritise, and know when to escalate
• a continuous improvement mindset, an understanding of workflow – and you’ll love a good process
• strong people and relationship management skills
• experience with databases and is reasonably system savvy
• excellent time management – a timeframe superstar who can manage deadlines like a pro, including those that need input from others
• a knowledge of OIA processes
• great communication skills and happy to engage in person or on the phone.

In this role you’ll immerse yourself in the detail and use your initiative to ensure that all your work is thorough, highly accurate and delivered on time – including following up with others to gain their input in a timely fashion. You’ll follow processes but also have an eye out for how things could improve along the way, and your positive, can-do attitude will see you engaging right across the organisation.

Given the nature of the Classification Office work, you could be exposed to some material that you might find challenging, so a good level of personal resilience is required.

In Return

You’ll join a team that’s known for its professionalism, integrity and impartiality in delivering robust public services. You’ll be part of a fantastic team culture that operates an open, honest, quiz loving, co-operative environment, respects individual diversity and accommodates work-life balance and support for career development.

The role is based in our central Wellington office on the Terrace.
