Help Us Bring Our Events to Life
Fixed-term to April 2026 | 30 hours/week | Auckland-based
$30 per hour
Why This Role Stands Out
From surf sports carnivals to junior comps and member development days—our events play a vital role in celebrating skill, building community, and supporting our mission to save lives. We're looking for an energetic, hands-on Event Support Officer to help make it all happen. If you love sport, logistics, and working with passionate people, this is your chance to get stuck in behind the scenes.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll work alongside our Regional Sports Manager and event teams to ensure smooth planning, setup, delivery, and pack-down of local and regional events. That includes everything from organising logistics and transporting gear to coordinating volunteer crews and documenting systems. Whether it’s a junior nipper day or a regional championship, you’ll help create safe, well-run, and memorable experiences for everyone involved.
What You’ll Bring
- Experience in event delivery or logistics
- Great organisational skills and attention to detail
- A calm, can-do attitude and willingness to roll up your sleeves
- Confidence working with volunteers and clubs
- Strong communication and admin skills
- Knowledge of surf lifesaving or sport events is a big plus
Why Join Us
At Surf Life Saving NZ, we’re more than lifeguards. We’re educators, event organisers, mentors, and community builders. You’ll join a values-driven team with a strong sense of purpose and a commitment to collaboration, wellbeing, and fun.
