About Us
At Flow Logistics, we keep things moving. We are a fast-growing, dynamic logistics provider specialising in smart supply chain solutions here in Christchurch. We pride ourselves on efficiency, reliability, and technology-driven service.
As we continue to expand our operations, we are looking for a sharp, organised, and proactive Office Administrator to join our team. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same, this is the role for you!
A Note on Flexibility: We know great talent comes with busy lives. While this is a permanent position, we are highly open to tailoring the hours to suit the right person. We are looking at initially introducing the role at 30 hours per week.
The Role
This is a varied, hands-on administrative role where you will be the backbone of our daily office operations. You’ll be working closely with management and the operations team to keep our documentation, customer service, and daily workflows seamless.
Your key responsibilities will include:
* Data Entry & System Management: Entering freight data, processing orders, and keeping our logistics management systems accurate and up to date.
* Customer Support: Handling phone and email inquiries from clients and suppliers with a professional, helpful attitude.
* Documentation & Compliance: Preparing, sorting, and filing dispatch notes, manifests, and billing documents.
* Office Coordination: Managing general office supplies, handling incoming/outgoing mail, and supporting the management team with general admin tasks.
* Problem Solving: Helping track down missing details, tracking deliveries, and ensuring smooth communication between clients and our floor team.
About You
We are looking for a reliable team player who is highly organised and has excellent attention to detail. You don't necessarily need a decades-long background in logistics, but you do need a strong work ethic and a "can-do" attitude.
To be successful in this role, you will have:
* Strong Tech Skills: Proficiency with computers, Microsoft Office (Word, Excel), and an ability to quickly pick up new software and cloud-based systems.
* Top-Notch Communication: Clear, confident written and verbal English.
* Exceptional Attention to Detail: Accurate data entry is critical in logistics—you're someone who spots the typos and mismatched numbers.
* Time Management: The ability to prioritise tasks and stay calm under pressure when things get busy.
* Reliability: You take pride in showing up, taking ownership of your tasks, and helping the wider business succeed.
* Experience in transport, logistics, or 3PL administration is a bonus, but not essential.
What’s on Offer?
* Competitive Pay: $60K - 80K, reflecting what you bring to the table.
* Genuine Work-Life Balance: 30 hour week and flexibility around school hours etc.
* Great Culture: A supportive, down-to-earth team environment where your work is valued.
* Growth Opportunities: Real opportunities to grow alongside an expanding local business.
* Full Support: Comprehensive training on our industry-specific systems and processes.
