Executive Assistant & Digital Marketing Support – Upper Hutt (Wellington) 27.5 – 37.5 hrs per week | $30–38 p/h We’re looking for a highly capable and versatile person to bring order, focus, and momentum to two growing businesses — while also helping our brand shine online. You’ll work directly with the CEO/Founder as their right hand, ensuring priorities stay on track and communications are clear, while also supporting digital marketing and social media. - Build a Music School — a global membership community for music school owners. - Hello Cashflow — a SaaS start-up helping small business owners and accountants master their cashflow in a brand new way. Together, these businesses have a combined team of 30–35 people spread across New Zealand and the world. Each has its own COO and executive team, but your focus will be keeping the CEO aligned and effective while ensuring key initiatives and marketing activity run smoothly. This role is based out of our casual home office in Upper Hutt, where you’ll also be greeted daily by two friendly dogs — a Golden Retriever and a Border Collie. Most of the team works remotely and a few of us are local, but we also gather for in-person team days and trips semi-regularly. What You’ll Do - Executive Support (reporting directly to the CEO) - Manage the CEO’s calendars, inboxes, and communications with accuracy and discretion. - Keep projects moving by delegating, following up, and supporting two busy teams. - Turn meeting notes into actionable steps and ensure they’re completed. - Spot potential issues early, flag them, and see them through to resolution. - Protect the CEO’s time and attention by filtering requests and priorities. - Build and maintain checklists, SOPs, and systems to create efficiency. - Provide concise daily and weekly updates that keep everyone aligned. - Digital Marketing Support - Schedule and publish content across LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. - Repurpose existing blogs, videos, and podcasts into posts, reels, and stories. - Monitor comments and messages, flagging engagement opportunities. - Track performance and provide simple reports. - Coordinate with designers or freelancers to keep the content calendar running. About You - 5+ years of experience in administrative or EA roles. - Able to plan, draft, and publish social media content using scheduling tools. - Tech savvy and comfortable with tools like Slack, Monday.com, and ChatGPT. - Excited to experiment with new tools and automations to work smarter. - Naturally proactive — you don’t wait for permission to solve problems. - Great with people — diplomatic, confident, and able to build strong working relationships. - Calm under pressure — you can re-prioritise quickly when things change. - Professional but approachable — you bring warmth, clarity, and positivity to interactions. - Comfortable working in a casual, home-based office while interacting with a global remote team. The Non-Negotiables - Based in Upper Hutt (Wellington) — mostly office-based, with a mix of work from home. - Between 27.5 and 37.5 hours per week (5.5–7.5 hrs per day). - Own reliable laptop, car, and valid driver’s license. - Able to dedicate full focus to this role (not balancing other jobs). - Strict confidentiality — you’ll have access to sensitive information and must be fully trustworthy. Why Join Us? - Work directly with the CEO and leadership team across two exciting businesses with global impact. - A role that blends high-level executive support with creative marketing — perfect if you enjoy both detail-oriented organisation and expressing ideas through content. - You’ll learn lots of new skills and technologies. - Opportunities to develop your career and grow alongside the business. - A casual, supportive work environment that’s not high stress. - Be part of an ambitious, entrepreneurial team where no two days are the same. This is more than just an admin role — it’s about owning the details, driving progress, and helping the CEO (and two businesses) operate at their best, while also shaping the way we show up online.
