**Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity**

We have an important role in supporting the Crown in its relationships with Māori under Te Tiriti o Waitangi | The Treaty of Waitangi. The government is committed to improving services and outcomes for Māori and strengthening the Crown's relationships with Māori.

We are responsible for designing community-based systems of care, agreeing health and wellbeing plans, executing those plans, and monitoring outcomes which then feed into the design process. We work in partnership with our Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora and Hauora Maori Service colleagues to shape system-wide public health services across the motu.

The Clinical Advisor will work in partnership with other clinical leaders and hold critical clinical relationships both internally and externally with key sector clinical groups. Whether in a national or regional role, the Clinical Advisor will work in a collaborative way with other system development colleagues across commissioning teams to design and implement improvements that address equity, quality, and patient safety outcomes. This role has an important role to play in whole-of-system clinical processes.

**This role is based in the Central Region, which is made up of Mid-Central, Whanganui, Capital & Coast Hutt Valley (Wellington Region), Hawkes Bay and Wairarapa. You will need to be based in the region. Your location can be discussed at interview stage.**

**Ngā pūkenga me ngā weako | Skills and experience**

As well as holding a relevant clinical professional qualification the Clinical Advisor needs to draw on experience in providing clinical governance and advice into key system and service redesign within the life course area in varied environments including:

- Demonstrated experience in providing advice into service design.
- Demonstrated experience in providing clinical governance across clinical services.
- Recognised as a senior clinical advisor, including participation in research and or other clinical learning environments.
- Demonstrated experience at a leadership level for developing, maintaining, and influencing relationships and partnerships across clinicians, wider sectors and organisations including with Māori and Pacific Peoples.

**Nau mai, uru mai | Come and join us**

When you join us, you become part of transforming the health system. This is a once in a life-time change, which will touch the lives of everyone in Aotearoa for generations.

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 improved access, experience and outcomes for those traditionally not well served by the system - Māori, Pacific and Disabled People.
