Details of the offer

We are a busy Central Auckland based family of four. Two kids, aged 8 and 11 and two parents who sometimes work or travel at odd hours. We are seeking a 'Family Assistant' to look after our household for on average 10-20 hours per week. The hourly rate is generous but reflects the greater than normal time flexibility required, including work on some weekends and some overnights stays.
Applications should have a cover letter explaining their fit for the role and of course CV and references!
Job requires the applicant to assist the family in anything they require, but mostly duties will include:
*Looking after children after school until bedtime (and on occasion before school), helping with homework, music practice and fun constructive play.
*Cooking meals for children and cleaning kitchen after (and getting kids to help!)
*Driving children to and from after school and weekend activities e.g swimming, horse riding, sports, play dates, shopping trips, general outings (museum/aquarium etc)
*Ensuring clean clothes and school uniforms as necessary
*As required looking after children for extended hours after bedtime and sometimes overnight. Early starts may require making children's school lunches and seeing them off to the bus for the day.
*General household management - grocery runs, car wofs/cleaning, liaising with tradespeople, gardeners etc. *Improving household efficiency with creative ideas and systems (our house is quite cluttered at times)
Requirements:
*Clean driving record - if not clean, then provide details of any incidents please and an explanation. Applicant will be driving our children around a lot of the time, which requires confident and competent driving in all conditions.
*Current first aid cert - if not then the successful applicant can get one before the start date.
*Good English language skills, spoken and written - other languages a bonus.
*Clean police record - provide details if not.
Personality, Skills and Experience preferred:
*Childcare experience - either nannying, ECE or school teaching or being parent to 2 or more kids.
*Executive assistant experience - personal assistant or office manager type experience.
*Happy, positive person - using positive reinforcement where possible with kids.
*Easy calm manner, not flustered easily by small things.
*Able to leave politics and religion at the door.
*Physical fitness - applicant will be playing actively with kids and will require lots of energy to juggle all the balls.
Hours:
*We require someone to work very flexible hours, and be on call (within reason of course, at least 24 hours notice).
*The role will require some overnight stays and some weekends. There will also be some early starts and late nights.
*Most 'normal' weeks are likely to be 3pm-7pm for 2 days during the week and 9am-7pm one weekend day. *There maybe a small scope for work from home to tackle assistant type tasks such as organizing travel or accommodation, trades people or other things that crop up from time to time.
*Some weeks will require no hours and others 40+
*The role requires a commitment to the family that is likely to preclude/limit other employment or study. It is understood that the family would pay well above average to compensate for this exclusivity, including a flat amount above and beyond any hours worked.
*Regardless of other work or commitments, we require having an assistant that is well rested and mentally fit to assist our household and look after our children.
Generous pay to reflect the time flexibility and other needs of the position:
*$30-50 per hour worked depending on the applicant’s experience and skills
*An additional base pay of $25,000 equivalent per annum, independent of hours worked. Petrol and other transport costs are assumed to be covered within this amount.
*Assuming 15 hours per week average, the right applicant could have a package worth $50-60k.
*Caveat being that you would not be able to easily work another job.
Other benefits:
*Occasional international travel (when the pandemic is over!!) would usually involve business class flights and luxury accommodation.
*Use of a car if required for the right applicant.
