Administration Manager

Archery New Zealand (ANZ) is a membership based National Sporting Organisation, facilitating the sport of Archery in New Zealand from the grass-roots level up to international representation, including the Olympics.

ANZ is a voluntary organisation governed by a Board whose executive are elected from within the membership at our AGM held in January each year.

As we look to grow the sport of archery and provide additional support to our members, we require the services of a paid Administration Manager, engaged as an independent contractor.

The Role

The Board is looking to appoint a self-employed contractor for approximately 20 hours per week, initially for a two-year term. The successful individual will have previous experience in working autonomously from their own home office.

Reporting to the Executive Board, the location of the role is flexible, with the current board members spread throughout the country. Travel to quarterly face-to-face Board Meetings, normally held in Auckland, may be required.

The Administration Manager provides the administrative support for ANZ and particularly the National Secretary, undertakes a linking role between the Board, Commissions, other Board appointed roles, the members and various external stakeholders.

• Manage ANZ’s trophies and records of their award;
• Prepare and present reports to the Board;

• Require excellent communication skills – verbal and written, attention to detail and the ability to prioritise multiple tasks;
• Must have your own “home office” setup including computer with reliable Internet access, phone, MS Office software, printer / scanner. A working knowledge of Xero accounting software would be useful, but we can provide training.
