Accounts Payable Officer – 15 Month Fixed Term

·         WFH + Flexible working

We do things a bit differently here

At Ando we believe that the fundamental purpose and function of insurance is to help people reduce their losses when bad things happen.  That’s why at Ando we’ve always believed in the importance of treating your insurance as a relationship, not a transaction. And why our purpose is to positively impact the wellbeing of New Zealanders.
