Oranga Tamariki—Ministry for Children works to advance the wellbeing and positive long-term outcomes of children and young people. With over 3,500 staff New Zealand wide, Oranga Tamariki supports families and whānau to provide a safe, stable and loving home for their children. It is our guiding belief that "in the right environment, with the right people surrounding and nurturing them, any child can and should flourish".
Clinical Services is a key specialist service of Oranga Tamariki providing psychological and therapeutic assessments and specialist interventions.
About the role | Mō te tūnga
This is a diverse and varied role that provides flexibility in the use of evidence-based intervention tools to achieve positive outcomes for tamariki and their whanau. Reporting to the Psychologist Team Leader, the successful candidate will gain exposure to comprehensive specialist parenting assessment work, assessments of children with complex care and protection histories, and other therapeutic interventions. We infrequently are required to provide expert evidence in Court, rather are able to engage in psychological work in the community with tamariki and whanau who need it most.
Experience working with children in a care and protection environment, providing assessment and therapy with tamariki and their whanau/caregivers, and assessments of parenting capacity will be an advantage. The successful candidate will work with a number of differing ethnicities including Maori and Pacifica clients and will liaise with community providers.
Oranga Tamariki has wide-ranging statutory responsibilities and is committed to services that are culturally appropriate. Oranga Tamariki recognises and has a commitment to the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi.
Applicants must be registered with the New Zealand Psychologists Board to be considered.
What's in it for you | Nōu te rourou
- The opportunity to make a positive impact in an organisation that works to ensure all children are in loving whanau and communities
- A supportive team environment
- Opportunities for further professional and cultural development support
- Salary $106,416 - $117,782 per annum (in line with skills and experience, Kiwisaver, professional registration and association fees)
Ideal candidate for this role is an experienced Psychologist who has worked in Aotearoa in a similar role for a non-governmental organisation (NGO) sector and/or someone who has worked within Oranga Tamariki previously (but not essential).
- A full, clean, current driver's licence
- Full registration with New Zealand's Psychologist Board and Current practicing certificate
- Empathy, patience and ability to see past what someone may be struggling with
- Experience within the child protection sector, preferably within NZ
- Able to demonstrate sound judgement and organisational skills
- The ability to manage risk and make tough decisions
