Wellington Central, New Zealand Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora Full time

Join Te Whatu Ora at a key time of change where you will meaningfully contribute to our kaupapa of creating a more equitable, accessible, cohesive and people-centered health system.
**Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity**

The Sustainability team within the Office of the Chief Executive brings to life our strategy and approach to sustainability, and unites contributions from across the organisation. Our aim is to integrate sustainability principles and practices across Te Whatu Ora, with the team monitoring and reporting on the organisation's overall sustainability performance.

This is a permanent full time role based in the Wellington region. Travel across the region is an important part of the role so a full driver's licence is required.

**Mōu | About you**

You are passionate about sustainability and have post-qualification experience in supporting and delivering sustainability within your organisation. Relationship building with senior stakeholders is a vital aspect to this role. Your knowledge, energy and enthusiasm will be key and will translate well to an ability to build rapport and trust at all levels, both within and outside the organisation.

This is your opportunity to play an important part in moving the health system towards a more sustainable future.

**Ko te mahi e tika ana mō te ao hurihuri nei |Work that suits today's ever-changing world**

Te Whatu Ora supports flexible and hybrid working for our kaimahi. In roles that don't require an in-person element, we encourage you to ‘work from where you are.' We want our national teams to be made up of diverse people from across the motu, just like our health system.

**Tō mātou whakahaere ki te tika, te rerekētanga, me te whai wāhi mai |Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion**

Our name, Te Whatu Ora, means ‘the weaving of wellness'. Whatu is the combining together of people, resources, organisations, thoughts and actions for the betterment and wellbeing of all. Whatu is also a direct reference to the pupil of the eye, and the vision required of the new entity and system.

At Te Whatu Ora we acknowledge and respect our people's diversity and spiritual needs, ensuring a safe workplace that is a whānau orientated and supportive environment. We are working towards a system that better meets the complex demands of a growing population, addresses the persistent inequalities experienced by Māori and ensures greater access, experience and outcomes for those traditionally not well served by the system - Māori, Pacific and Disabled People.
