Counties Manukau Health is a dynamic and progressive organisation at the forefront of innovative health delivery, serving New Zealand’s most culturally diverse population. It is this diversity that offers unique opportunities for health professionals on both a personal and professional level.  

The Cardiology Investigation Unit is looking for a full-time trainee Cardiac Sonographer to join our dynamic team of Cardiac Sonographers, Cardiac Physiologists and Cardiac Physiology Technicians – in a fixed term position.  The successful applicant will be part of our Cardiac Sonography team involved in performing procedures including adult transthoracic echocardiography and assisting in transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE).

These trainee positions are rarely available and highly sought after.  So, if you have a Bachelors level science or health science degree suitable for registration with the Medical Radiation Technologist Board (MRTB) and the drive and determination to succeed then we want to hear from you.

This training position involves gaining a post graduate level qualification through either the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) or the University of Auckland (UoA) - by both distance learning, attendance of residential block courses and through on the job training. The academic pathway will be confirmed at time of enrolment.

Note, candidates who hold New Zealand (NZ) residency (rather than citizenship) will only have access to the UoA academic pathway (subject to recognition of suitable undergraduate degree).

To be eligible for enrolment in the qualification you must be a NZ citizen or NZ resident (including citizens of the Cook Islands, Tokelau, and Niue) or an Australian citizen.

The successful candidate will also be available to start in the role by November/December 2023. Pathway will commence March 2024 for 27 month training pathway
