Roles to start with in Wellington.
Wellington is New Zealand's capital, so central government agencies and the consultancies, contractors and associations that work with them make up much of the local economy. Policy research, universities, a strong film and screen industry and a compact tech sector add to it. Reports, briefings and tender responses mean a lot of writing and formatting.

Questions from Wellington
Wellington is New Zealand's capital. It keeps New Zealand Time (NZST or NZDT), which is UTC+12 or UTC+13. Wellington changes its clocks for daylight saving, so the overlap with some of our hubs moves by an hour for part of the year.
Research, formatting, document control and status reporting. A Research Assistant or Technical Writer drafts and tracks from your inputs, and your analysts keep the judgement and the conclusions.
For unrestricted work, yes. Contracts that restrict where work is done, or who may see data, need a conversation first, so raise them on the demo.
A Motion Designer, Short-Form Video Editor or Graphic Designer works to your pipeline and naming rules. Studio supplies finished creative work quoted in hours.
An Email & CRM Marketer, Administrative Assistant or Content Writer keeps member records, newsletters and event lists in order.
Yes. New Zealand keeps one time zone and changes its clocks on its own dates, so the Philippines hub shares 3-4 hours of a Wellington 9-to-5, the same as Auckland.
Anything restricted or needing clearance, and stakeholder meetings in person. A Seat does the unrestricted admin, drafting and follow-up around them.
The Budget in May, select committee timetables and the 31 March tax year-end drive reports and submissions. A Seat can handle formatting, research and tracking so your staff focus on substance.
Week one is a style guide, your document tools and a short list of repeat tasks. The person produces a first draft each week for your review, and the notes improve each round.
List your document tools, reference manager, project tool and editing or design software, for example Microsoft 365, Adobe tools or Asana. We match people who already work in them.
A Research Assistant is often followed by a Technical Writer. Studios add a Graphic Designer after a Motion Designer, and associations add an Email & CRM Marketer.
No. Prices are in AUD and exclude GST. Your invoice shows any tax that applies.
An Administrative Assistant handles scheduling and records, and a Research Assistant gathers sources and tidies notes. Your researchers keep the analysis.
A Medical Administrative Assistant, Patient Care Coordinator or Administrative Assistant handles bookings, records and correspondence. Tell us the systems and any access rules on your demo.
A Legal Assistant or Paralegal prepares documents and keeps files in order. Your lawyers keep the advice and the filings.
