The Administration Manager contributes to the achievement of the strategic priorities of the Post through effective delivery of a full range of office administration duties, including management of local staff and the High Commission’s financial processes, property and IT systems, and management of the High Commission’s consular services.
The role will suit those interested in a broad range of work in a fascinating, diverse and rewarding environment. The ability to provide leadership and deliver results in a collaborative manner is essential, as is the ability to work effectively across cultures.
The successful person would be employed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade and seconded to the High Commission in Port Vila for a fixed term of three years initially, which may extend depending on budget approval.
