If successful, you will be part of the mental health service coordination team based at Greenlane Clinical Centre. You will work alongside a range of community and inpatient mental health professionals, and you will network with NGO providers across the entire Auckland region.

In service coordination you will be part of a team of mental health professionals and you will work closely with multiple services and organisations. This is a fantastic opportunity to make connections with a variety of stakeholders who have a passion for providing mental health care.
You will need to be flexible, self-directed, and have excellent interpersonal skills. As a core part of the role you will undertake comprehensive support needs assessments in order to advocate for appropriate supports for whaiora; and you will routinely review care plans to determine whether recovery goals are being met.
You will plan, coordinate, problem solve, and access a variety of services for tangata whai ora who have high and complex or multiple needs.
You will be competent in using basic Microsoft packages including Outlook, Word and Excel; and have experience in diary management with the ability to use electronic client records.
There is a duty component to the role, and you will act as a resource person to provide appropriate information to colleagues.
