STORAGE CONSULTANT

Website StoreStuff Self Storage Petone

We’re a locally owned self-storage facility in Lower Hutt looking for a reliable, switched-on person to join us part time.

Start: In the next few weeks (negotiable)

Days & hours: Fri 9am – 5pm, Sat 9am – 4pm (Saturday is essential). Potential for another weekday (negotiable).

No two days are the same – you’ll be helping customers in all kinds of situations, keeping the facility running, and taking real ownership of the role. This isn’t a typical office job. It involves everything from selling a unit and processing payments to debt follow-up, security, and cleaning.

We’re a small, independent storage operation punching above our weight. You’ll become a keyholder over time and eventually run the site independently.

What the role involves:

  • Opening and closing the facility and conducting security checks
  • Greeting customers, running site tours, and finding the right solution for their needs
  • Processing rentals, contracts, and payments
  • Following up enquiries and overdue accounts
  • Keeping the facility clean, tidy, and well-presented – including gardens and outdoor areas
  • Managing retail stock (boxes, packing supplies)
  • General admin, phones, and social media updates
  • Bonus points if you’re practically handy

What we’re looking for:

  • Customer service or sales experience is a big bonus
  • Self-motivated and able to use your initiative
  • Tech literate – comfortable with online systems and CRMs
  • Well-spoken and confident on the phone
  • Full NZ driver’s licence
  • Physically fit and happy to get involved
  • Available Saturdays is a must
  • Availability across the Christmas / New Year period. Note we are closed on the public holidays (as well as Xmas Eve & NYE!)
  • Bonus points if you live locally

What we offer:

  • $26 – $30/hr + Kiwisaver depending on experience
  • Paid trial shift to ensure the job is right for you
  • Paid lunch break
  • Option to pick up extra days during holiday periods if you want them – up to 6 days a week (negotiable with the owner, not guaranteed)
  • Flexibility around study or personal commitments (such as exam periods) with reasonable notice
  • No Sundays, public holidays, early starts, or late nights
