Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity
The Head of Sustainability leads on our strategy and approach to sustainability, and coordinates contributions from different parts of 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.
The role leads a high-performing team, and collaborates extensively with a wide range of internal experts and teams. Strong external alliances, both public service and more broadly, are also essential to our success ahead.

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.
