Ko wai koe? – Who are you?
You are a highly organised project or programme coordinator who enjoys bringing people together to deliver meaningful outcomes. You are equally comfortable building trusted relationships with senior clinicians, hospital managers and external partners as you are coordinating complex implementation activities across multiple workstreams.
This role would suit someone with experience in project coordination, clinical education, health service planning, programme implementation or stakeholder engagement who enjoys working across organisational boundaries to deliver lasting outcomes. You thrive in collaborative environments, are solutions-focused, and enjoy turning ideas into practical, well-coordinated initiatives.
You will also bring:
Experience coordinating complex programmes or implementation projects involving multiple stakeholders.
Exceptional relationship management and communication skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across diverse organisations and communities.
Experience preparing agreements, coordinating implementation activities, and maintaining accurate records.
The ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining a high level of organisation and attention to detail.
A proactive, solutions-focused approach with the ability to work independently and adapt within a dynamic environment.
An understanding of partnership-based approaches and a commitment to working in ways that reflect Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
Experience in the health sector, tertiary education, clinical education, or workforce development would be advantageous, as would experience working with rural, Māori, or Pacific health providers.
Ko wai mātou? – Who are we?
The Division of Health is committed to advancing equitable health outcomes across Aotearoa through innovative teaching, research, and strong partnerships with the communities we serve. Our programmes span Biomedical Sciences, Health Promotion, Human Performance Science, Midwifery, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Sport Development and Coaching.
A major strategic priority is the establishment of the New Zealand Graduate School of Medicine (NZGSM), which will welcome its inaugural cohort in 2028. The NZGSM will deliver a distributed, community-connected model of medical education, preparing future doctors to meet the health needs of regional, rural, Māori, and Pacific communities.
He aha ngā take me tono mai ai koe? – Why should you apply for this position?
This is a rare opportunity to help build one of the most significant developments in New Zealand's health education sector. Your work will directly shape the hospital placement network that will support future generations of doctors training across regional and rural Aotearoa.
At the University of Waikato, we value integrity, creativity, diversity, and our enduring partnership with Māori. We are committed to a workplace that is inclusive, collaborative, and mana-enhancing, and we welcome applications from people who share our commitment to improving health outcomes through education and partnership.
