Job Description
Location: Mt Wellington
Start Date: ASAP
Contract Duration: 4 months
We’re looking for a highly organised and proactive Service Development Coordinator to join our client's People & Development team on a short-term contract. This role has been created to support a period of rapid growth and delivery across several new and emerging service initiatives.
You’ll play a key role as the “engine room” behind our service delivery — ensuring coordination, information flow, and administrative processes run smoothly so our teams can stay focused on outcomes.
About the Role
This is a hands-on coordination role, not project management. You’ll work across multiple teams and initiatives, providing essential structure, tracking, and follow-through to keep things moving efficiently.
You’ll also help bridge a gap in development administration and provide overflow support where needed (e.g. Assessment Centre coordination).
Key Responsibilities
Service Coordination
Manage referrals and support eligibility processes
Track cases and maintain clear visibility across service activity
Ensure accurate and up-to-date records
Operational Coordination
Schedule hui/meetings and coordinate logistics
Track actions and follow up to ensure progress
Maintain documentation and support information flow across teams
Service Development Support
Support Growth Committee coordination and administration
Track milestones and maintain pipeline visibility
Assist with basic reporting and progress updates
What We’re Looking For
Proven experience as a senior administrator or coordinator
Exceptional organisation and attention to detail
Strong capability with Excel/spreadsheets and data tracking
Ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously
Proactive, responsive, and comfortable following up to keep things moving
Confidence working across teams and with external stakeholders
Nice to have:
Experience in health, disability, education, or social services
Why This Role Matters
This position plays a critical role in enabling our service teams to operate effectively during a high-growth phase. By bringing consistency, coordination, and visibility, you’ll directly support better outcomes across our service initiatives.
