At HainesAttract, we’re all about transforming the way people connect with opportunity. Whether you call it recruitment, talent attraction or employer branding – it’s our sweet spot. We work behind the scenes with some of the country’s key employers, helping tell their stories across New Zealand and beyond.

We know work is where you spend a decent chunk of your time, so while we take what we do seriously, we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

What we’re looking for

As our next Finance Assistant, you’ll play a key role in keeping the financial side of the business running smoothly. You might be coming from an administration, accounts, payroll or office support background – or you could be someone with strong organisation and attention to detail who’s keen to build your finance career in a supportive, people-first environment.

This is a permanent, full-time position and is perfect for someone who enjoys structure, accuracy and supporting a wider team. You’ll work closely with our internal team and external partners to ensure everything behind the scenes is tidy, timely and running like clockwork.

What you’ll bring

• Strong attention to detail (the kind that spots the missing cent)

• Excellent time management and organisational skills

• A methodical, reliable approach to work

• Confidence working with numbers and financial data

• A willingness to learn and jump in to support the wider team

• Previous experience in finance, accounts or administration is advantageous

• A positive, can-do attitude and great communication skills

• The ability to work well within a close-knit, collaborative team

Previous experience in a similar finance or accounts role would be great, but it isn’t essential. We’re far more interested in your attitude, potential and attention to detail than a ‘perfect’ CV.

What the job involves

• Finance support: Managing invoicing, accounts payable and receivable, and general finance administration

• Data and record keeping: Maintaining accurate financial records and supporting month-end processes

• Internal support: Working closely with the team to answer finance-related queries and provide administrative support

• Process improvement: Helping keep systems, processes and documentation organised and up to date

• Continuous learning: Building your finance knowledge and supporting the business as it grows

What you’ll get

You’ll join a team of people who are great at what they do and even better at being awesome humans. We have a flat, supportive structure where everyone is happy to pitch in, share a laugh and help each other out.

Our office is dog-friendly, located just across the road from Petone Beach, and we’re spoilt with a weekly grocery shop stocked with snacks and breakfast goodies.

We’re big on flexibility and understand that life doesn’t always run on a 9–5 schedule. Once you’re trained up, there’s also the opportunity to work from home some of the time, while still being part of our vibrant, office-based culture.

If work-life balance matters to you and you’d like to be part of a business that genuinely cares about its people, we’d love to hear from you.
