Business Coordinator

Boost Auto is a New Zealand-based automotive consultancy operating at the intersection of marketing, sales performance, and emerging technology. This role exists to provide direct operational and research support to the Principal, enabling the business to execute at a higher level and with greater precision.

The incoming Business Coordinator will take ownership of day-to-day research functions, some book-keeping, operational workflow, and tool management — freeing the Principal to focus on client delivery, strategic development, and business growth.

The ideal candidate will be a business graduate looking for additional work with 2-4 years post grad work experience, they'll be an analytical critical thinker, disciplined with high standards of English literacy and a confident communicator. They will also be a confident user of Ai tools (mainly Claude, some Copilot). A knowledge or interest in cars is an advantage but not a pre-requisite.

Key Responsibilities
1. Research and Market Intelligence
• Conduct structured research into the New Zealand automotive market, including registrations, trends, emerging brands, and competitor activity.
• Compile and present findings in clear, formatted summaries suitable for client delivery or internal decision-making.
• Monitor industry news, regulatory changes, and OEM developments relevant to Boost Auto’s client base.
• Support the Principal with data sourcing and analysis for proposals, reports, and presentations
2. Operations and Workflow
• Manage and maintain the business task board in Trello, ensuring priorities are current and actions are tracked.
• Support the development and maintenance of workflow automations to reduce manual administration.
• Coordinate scheduling, follow-ups, and project tracking across active engagements.
3. AI Tool Support
• Assist in the practical application of AI tools to streamline research, content production, and business processes.
• Identify opportunities to automate repetitive tasks using AI-assisted workflows.
• Stay current on relevant AI tool developments and recommend adoption where appropriate
4. General Business Support
• Provide administrative and coordination support as required by the Principal.
• Assist with document preparation, formatting, and version control.
• Handle ad hoc tasks with initiative and without requiring constant direction.


We use Trello, JotForm, Claude, MS365 and Xero (accounting software). You do not need Xero experience, but you have to understand the basics of accounting book-keeping.

10 hours per week minimum. We offered 4 weeks paid leave (2 of which must be at Christmas). There is a possibility of additional work from time to time.
