Posted Monday, 17 August 2026 at 5:00 am |
Citycare Property is looking for an Executive Assistant to work alongside our Chief Executive in a varied role that sits at the heart of the business.
You’ll help keep priorities moving, coordinate key pieces of work and support the communication, planning and day-to-day activity that keeps the business connected and on track.
What You’ll Be Doing | Ngā Kawenga Takohanga
As the Executive Assistant to our Chief Executive, you’ll play an important role in keeping priorities organised, creating capacity and making sure key pieces of work continue to move forward.
This is a varied role that goes beyond diary management and taking meeting minutes. You’ll work across the Executive Leadership Team, Operational Leadership Team and wider business to coordinate priorities, manage competing demands and help turn conversations and ideas into action. You’ll also coordinate the preparation of board and executive papers, bringing together input from across the business, managing deadlines and ensuring information is accurate, clear and ready for review.
You’ll be trusted with confidential and commercially sensitive information and have visibility across a broad range of business activity, from day-to-day operations through to key projects, communications and planning.
Your day-to-day could include:
Coordinating key initiatives, reporting and business priorities across the organisation
Preparing communications, presentations and key business updates
Staying ahead of priorities, solving problems and keeping important work on track
Managing calendars, meetings and travel arrangements
Coordinating leadership events, planning sessions and stakeholder engagements
Managing confidential and commercially sensitive information with discretion and good judgement
Coordinating board papers and presentations
Using technology, systems and AI tools to simplify processes and improve efficiency

What You’ll Bring to the Table | Ngā Mea ka Mauria e Koe ki te Rūnanga
Success in this role isn't defined by how many years you've worked as an Executive Assistant. It's about your ability to build trust, communicate effectively, think ahead and help the CEO stay focused on what matters most.
You may already be an experienced EA, or you may come from a customer service, sales, administration or coordination background where you've worked closely with senior leaders and developed exceptional relationship management skills.
We're looking for someone who brings energy, initiative and good judgement. Someone who is comfortable working with different personalities, able to challenge constructively, and thrives in an environment where priorities shift.

Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills
Confidence engaging with senior leaders, executives and stakeholders
Strong judgement and absolute discretion when handling confidential information
A proactive mindset with the ability to anticipate needs and take ownership
Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
A genuine passion for supporting others and enabling success
Confidence using technology, systems and emerging AI tools
Energy, adaptability and a willingness to learn and grow
Commercial awareness and an interest in how businesses operate
You’ll also need the legal right to work in Aotearoa New Zealand, and be able to complete the relevant pre-employment checks, including a medical assessment, drug and ******* test, reference checks and a Criminal Record Check.
Benefits | Ngā painga
Gain exposure to executive leadership, Board activity and key business initiatives
Build your experience across a large and diverse organisation
Access learning, development, training and networking opportunities
Enjoy free annual health checks, flu vaccinations and skin checks
Access confidential counselling, mental health support and wellbeing programmes
Save with employee discounts across a wide range of retailers through the Boost programme
Earn up to $1,000 through our employee referral programme
Be part of a business with opportunities to build relationships and experience across different teams and functions
