**Salary**: As per MECA

**Kōrero mō te tūranga - About the role.**

Working as a key member of a small and supportive paediatric dietitian team, you will provide dietetic care to paediatric patients (aged 0-16 years), predominantly in the outpatient setting. You will carry a diverse workload which will give the opportunity to work in both general and specialist paediatric areas. Whilst this is an outpatient role, you may be required to provide cover to inpatient wards during periods of staff leave.

The post-holder will be responsible for assessment and management of nutritional requirements including children with allergies, tube feeding, malnutrition and IBD within the Child Health Service. They will also support the wider dietetic team as clinical demand requires and support the ongoing development of the paediatric dietetic service, with opportunities to develop and be involved in speciality MDT clinics.

You will be well supported by the CCDHB dietetic team and will also be an integral part of the Child Health Service. This is an exciting time for the Child Health team, with Te Wao Nui (the new Wellington Children’s Hospital) recently completed and now in use. The paediatric dietitians at Capital & Coast are well respected and supported by the wider Child Health team including MDT colleagues, nurse specialists and medical staff.

The paediatric outpatient service is based across Wellington and Kenepuru Hospitals and Kāpiti Health Centre. The configuration of clinic cover is dependent on the skill mix and preferences within the team and will be negotiated and decided following recruitment. The role is a permanent position, 20 hours per week, with hours/days of work to be agreed.
