Volunteer Administration Coordinator
3–6 Month Volunteer Opportunity
Help us keep the wheels turning while our newest PKC babies arrive
At Premmie Knitting Club, everything we do is powered by volunteers, donors and an incredible community of people who believe that small acts of kindness can make a big difference during a family's most challenging moments.
With two of our board members preparing for parental leave, we're seeking a volunteer Administration Coordinator to provide additional support for a period of 3-6 months.
Important Information
Our current board members will remain in their governance roles during their parental leave period. However, some of the day-to-day administrative tasks they currently undertake will need additional support, creating an opportunity for a volunteer to help keep Premmie Knitting Club running smoothly.
The Opportunity
This is a flexible, fully remote volunteer role that can be completed from anywhere in New Zealand.
We're looking for someone who enjoys organisation, administration and helping others. You'll play an important role in supporting the day-to-day operations of our charity and ensuring our volunteers, donors and community members continue to have a positive experience.

Bonus Opportunity for Auckland-Based Volunteers
If you're Auckland-based and interested, there may be occasional opportunities to assist with sorting and packing donated knitting.
This would be arranged at a mutually convenient time and is entirely optional. Volunteers from outside Auckland are encouraged to apply, as this is not a requirement of the role.
