Part-Time Personal Assistant & Social Media Assistant

Role overview

Harcourts Manurewa is looking for an organised, creative, and motivated part-time Personal Assistant to support the Director with everyday business administration, coordination, and social media content work.

This opportunity may suit someone entering the workforce, a parent returning to work, or anyone seeking a shorter workday that fits around family or other commitments.

The position is practical and varied, so the ideal person will be self-directed, comfortable using their own initiative, and ready to take ownership of day-to-day tasks. You will help keep things moving, follow up on actions, create content, and contribute new ideas to support the business.

What the role involves

You will work directly with the Director across administration, scheduling, communication, marketing support, and social media activities. Strong experience with Canva and familiarity with other digital tools are important, as content creation is a major part of the role.

Key duties

• Deliver everyday administrative and personal assistant support to the Director
• Handle emails, follow-ups, calendars, and general coordination tasks
• Design social media content using Canva and other relevant platforms
• Assist with planning and preparing marketing materials
• Support daily business operations and workflow
• Work independently, organise your tasks, and meet deadlines
• Contribute fresh ideas to strengthen content, systems, and processes

Ideal candidate profile

The business is seeking someone who is creative, dependable, and confident using Canva. You should be capable of producing or supporting social media content, keep yourself well organised, and approach work proactively.

The right person will be able to adapt quickly, communicate professionally, present themselves well, and stay calm in a busy environment. A willingness to learn and grow with the business is also important.

Working hours

This starts as a part-time role of about 20 to 25 hours each week. For the right person, there is potential for the position to expand into full-time hours later on.

The schedule may suit someone wanting flexible hours, school-hour style work, or a gradual return to employment.

Why this role stands out

This is a strong opportunity to work closely with a business leader, build valuable experience, and join a growing professional team. The job offers variety, responsibility, and the chance to develop further over time.

Application instructions

Applicants should send a CV together with a short cover letter describing their experience.
