Administrator - B4 School Checks


Ensuring all tamariki are booked in for their B4 School Checks is an important part of our mahi here at Whānau Āwhina Plunket. This is a comprehensive assessment of language, growth, behaviour, social and emotional development, and oral health across selected regions in Aotearoa. These checks are done by our nurses in clinics, early childhood centres, community spaces, marae, as well as home visits.

We’re seeking the support of a B4 School Administrator to join our team working in our Manukau office, this a 0.6FTE office-based position until January 2028.

The salary range is between $57,405 to $62,672 based on experience.

TeWhiwhingamahi | The opportunity

Getting ready to go to primary school is a special time in a young person’s development and often a busy time for whānau. To contribute towards our pro-equity journey and ensuring that our tamariki are well cared for, our B4 School Administrators reach out to whānau and caregivers of tamariki who have recently turned four years old to arrange a time and place that is convenient for them to have their B4 School check.

You will be responsible for the Counties Manukau area, therefore a good understanding of this region and phenomenal geographical awareness is important.

He kōrero mōu| About you

As a critical part of our front-line team, being able to quickly build rapport and gain trust will be the key to your success. While ensuring each interaction with our whānau is a good one, you will also be confident in being able to work at pace and autonomously meet targets which have been set.

Despite the locations we each look after, working as a team is critical, so you will be ready to pivot if one of your co-workers need support.

This is a predominantly outbound phone-based position and also includes answering inbound calls from our 0800 number, so confidence on the phone will be key. Prior experience working in an inbound/outbound call centre would be advantageous, alongside a hunger to be able to play a key part in our pro-equity journey by ensuring our communities thrive.

Ensuring the success of our pro-equity vision, you will be confident in engaging with local iwi and be able to effectively build relationship with whānau. We expect and encourage all Plunket people to live our values; kia māia – to be courageous, kia Māhaki – to be humble, kia manaaki – to care and kia tūhono – to stand in relationship.
