Date: 5 Sept 2025
Location: Central Auckland, NZ, 1010
Company: Auckland Council
- Permanent, full-time (40 hrs) role with flexible hybrid working
- Coordinate workplace relocations while delivering excellent customer service

He angitūtanga: The opportunity
Auckland Council’s Group Shared Services’ Corporate Support Services division has an opportunity for a Workplace Coordinator to support the successful delivery of workplace projects and requests.
In this role, you’ll:
- Coordinate workplace relocations, furniture moves, and space set-ups across Auckland Council and CCO sites.
- Be the first point of contact for workplace requests – everything from health and safety issues to kitchen supplies – keeping customers informed and ensuring a smooth experience.
- Work closely with project managers on relocations and workplace change projects, assisting with procurement, financial processes, and vendor coordination.
- Liaise with internal teams (Technology, Security, Business Partners) and external suppliers (furniture providers, contractors) to deliver safe, functional, and future-focused workplaces.
This is a hands-on role with real variety – one day you might be supporting the planning of a large-scale office relocation, the next organising the setting up a staff breakout area at a library or animal shelter.
He kōrero mōu: About you
You’ll be organised, proactive, and customer-focused, with strong communication skills and the confidence to take initiative in a fast-moving environment.
We’re looking for someone with:
- Proven coordination experience in workplace change, project delivery, events, or supplier/contractor management
- Strong customer service skills, with the ability to manage competing requests and build trusted relationships.
- A knack for problem-solving and process improvement – finding smarter ways to get things done.
- A full NZ driver’s licence to travel across Auckland sites.
- A relevant diploma or qualification in property, facilities, or project management is desirable.
We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every requirement listed. What matters most is your ability to contribute to a collaborative, purpose-driven environment where diverse experiences are valued.
