Mō tātou Ratonga | About our Service

Nothing prepares you for the humanity of working in a hospital – nobody does People and Culture like us. It is an incredibly privileged role, you aren’t contributing to the “bottom line” of a corporate, you are enabling health, and the incredible people that deliver it. If that’s ‘your why’ you need to join us.

 

AskHR (which sits within our Shared Services team) is the backbone of our HR and OD department, and as such is an excellent stepping stone for someone looking to become an HR generalist, or an already experienced HR Coordinator looking to gain awesome experience in a highly complex organisation.

 

We constantly seek ways to improve the experience for our 8000+ employees and managers. You will be immersed in handling enquiries and support tasks across all HR areas; be-it answering employee relations enquiries, assisting in employment change requests, attending investigation meetings or providing input into HR projects. 

 

Mōu | About you

Required skills & experience you will need to be considered for this role:

• A team player, with a great attitude and ability to learn quickly on the job

• Someone with exceptional communication

• Someone with proven time management skills, and the ability to cope with a high level of conflicting priorities

• Able to exercise common sense, demonstrate problem solving skills, and contribute new ideas

• Adaptability, versatility and the willingness to embrace change and meet new challenges, able to look at how different scenarios may play out in an employment sense so you can give great advice

• The ability to develop competence in internal systems and demonstrable experience of Microsoft Office suite

It is not very often something happens that is big; like, really big. Big to the point that it will touch the lives of every single person in the country. That is what we are talking about here. The provision of Health in Aotearoa New Zealand, and how its run is about to change in a big way.

 

Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand and Te Aka Whai Ora - Māori Health Authority will together shape the delivery of Health services in Aotearoa New Zealand for generations to come, and will form the core of a modern and integrated service looking after the needs of all our Whānau.

 

We are dedicated to achieving health equity for Māori and other priority populations. We are a Crown entity and an active partner in Te Tiriti o Waitangi. Te Whatu Ora – Health New Zealand is guided by Te Tiriti o Waitangi and is committed to upholding the articles.

 

Here at Te Whatu Ora – Health New Zealand, Waikato we have a team of 8,000 working across the Waikato where everyone plays a vital role in the care of our patients – directly or non-directly.  Our vision is Healthy People. Excellent Care.
