Due to an internal promotion, we are seeking a confident people leader to join our team as a Clinical Services Manager. While our preference is to have a Wellington-based kaimahi, we may consider applications from surrounding areas for the right candidate.

You will be able to showcase your experience in coaching and supporting high performing leaders who enable their kaimahi to thrive. You will be a strategic thinker, who has experience in motivating your direct reports and their teams to reach strategic organisational goals.
Providing leadership at this level will require you to have established networks with iwi providers and across the health sector. You will be adept at managing multiple contracts and have the nous to make budgetary and staffing decisions to support your teams to do their best mahi.
