At sKids, we believe childhood should be full of laughter, learning, and adventure! Since 1996, we’ve been creating awesome out-of-school experiences for Tamariki across New Zealand. Today, we welcome thousands of children every day at over 140 school sites nationwide – and we’re still growing!

We’re currently on the hunt for a Senior P&C Advisor to join our hard-working support office team based in Glenfield. This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you’ll be in the thick of it, partnering with leaders across multiple school sites.

As our Senior P&C Advisor, you’ll act as a trusted partner to leaders, guiding them through everything from day-to-day people decisions to complex employment relations matters. You’ll play a critical role in lifting leadership capability, driving consistency across sites, and helping shift the organisation from reactive HR to proactive, forward-thinking people practices.

• Leading complex ER cases and investigations with confidence, discretion, and strong judgement
