Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity


Are you passionate about tamariki with developmental disabilities and looking to make a positive difference in the lives of tamariki and their whanau? You will be working in a multidisciplinary team within the Child Development Centre (CDC).

The CDC provides multi-disciplinary assessment and intervention for tamariki aged years with developmental disabilities. The psychologists within CDC carry out diagnostic assessments with children and young adolescents with developmental disabilities.


Part of this role may be to work in a team with paediatricians to provide assessment of children's health, developmental needs, mental health, trauma, emotional and education needs in our Gateway Service.

From the assessment, a multi-agency agreement is decided on with health and Oranga Tamariki services.

The position would ideally suit a psychologist with experience in the assessment of Autism Spectrum Disorder, Intellectual Disability and other common neurodevelopmental conditions.

Proficiency in the administration and interpretation of psychometric instruments, in particular the WISC-V and the ADOS-2 would be an advantage.

Excellent written communication skills are required as assessment report writing is a key part of the role.
