Join Te Whatu Ora at a key time of change where you will meaningfully contribute to our kaupapa of creating a more equitable, accessible, cohesive, and people-centred health system.

This is mahi that will improve the health and well-being of everyone in Aotearoa, and we've got an opportunity for you to be part of it...

This role is responsible for working though the National and Regional Emergency Management Teams, and in partnership with the wider health system to achieve Te Whatu Ora's strategic priorities.

Te Whatu Ora supports flexible and hybrid working for our kaimahi.

Whatu is also a direct reference to the pupil of the eye, and the vision required of the new entity and system.

We are working towards a system that better meets the complex demands of a growing population, addresses the persistent inequalities experienced by Māori and ensures greater access, experience, and outcomes for those traditionally not well served by the system – Māori, Pacific and Disabled People.

If you can demonstrate the skills listed in the ad, but the experience was gained through whānau life, community or mahi aroha (volunteering) we encourage you to apply and share your story with us in your cover letter.

We particularly welcome applications from our diverse Māori, Pacific, disabled, and rainbow communities.
