Job description

Co-Owner / Director at PDC Creative | Driving Business Growth with Proven Expertise Across Industries | Results-Driven Marketing Professional

About us

Meet PDC – we're a tight-knit marketing agency helping brands all over New Zealand and Australia stand out, sell more, and tell their story better.

From bold video campaigns and scroll-stopping ads to strategy and design, PDC is proud to be the behind-the-scenes partner powering our clients' growth.

We're a small team of passionate creatives, strategists and marketers who love what we do and have a lot of fun doing it.

You'll find us bouncing ideas across the office, celebrating wins (big and small), and backing each other every step of the way.

Our culture is collaborative, family-friendly, and built on flexibility, trust and a shared drive to do great work for our clients.

If you're into creative energy, good coffee, and being part of a high-performing, supportive team, you'll fit right in.

About the role

This is a new full-time, in-person role designed to keep our operations running smoothly.

As our Office Manager, you'll be the go-to person who keeps everything humming : this means being front of house / reception, print & production management, and the many other moving parts of our creative agency.

You'll be the first friendly face clients see when they walk through the door, the helpful voice on the phone, and the organisational backbone that supports our marketing specialists, designers and video team to focus on what they do best.

No two days will be the same - one moment you'll be managing print collateral into production, the next you'll be coordinating supplies, supporting the team with admin, or just helping make the office an inspiring place to work.

Your key responsibilities will include :

Front of house duties - greeting clients, answering calls, managing enquiries

Overseeing print production and liaising with suppliers

Managing general office administration (from supplies to systems)

Supporting the team with job coordination and client communications

Helping maintain our project management and CRM systems

Coordinating internal events, meetings, and the occasional team lunch

This is a hands-on, people-focused role that's central to our agency operations.

About you

You're the kind of person who loves bringing structure to chaos, thrives in a busy creative environment, and takes pride in being the one everyone can rely on.

You're proactive, adaptable, and know how to juggle tasks without dropping the ball.

Have strong organisational and time management skills

Be confident, friendly, and great with people

Have excellent attention to detail (and can spot a typo from a mile away)

Be comfortable managing multiple priorities at once

Have experience in an admin, office, or coordination role

Be tech-savvy, familiar with Microsoft 365, CRMs, and cloud systems

Take initiative and look for ways to improve systems or processes

Bring a positive attitude and genuine care for the people you work with

Bonus points if you've worked in a creative or marketing environment before, but it's not a deal breaker.

What matters most is that you're organised, reliable, and fit our team culture.

What's on offer

A full-time, office-based role in the heart of Whangarei

A supportive, creative team who genuinely value balance and well-being

Flexibility when life happens (we get it, we're parents too!)

An opportunity to grow and develop your role as the agency evolves

A vibrant, collaborative office environment where your ideas matter
