**Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity**

The National Clinical Director for Renal Transplant will be crucial in the development and improvement of renal transplant services for the whole of New Zealand. There will be a strong focus on ensuring that the annual work programme embeds Te Tiriti o Waitangi to deliver a better and more equitable service for whānau Māori.

The role will provide clinical leadership and expert advice to national and regional working groups, colleagues and professional bodies to areas of service improvement to increase transplant volumes to meet the needs of our communities. There will be the opportunity to provide thought leadership and to function as a national advocate for organ donation.

With the establishment of the National Clinical Network for Renal, this role will be pivotal in ensuring that a robust, world leading transplant programme continues to support patients on their renal pathways. Working with the clinical network the post-holder will need to lead a team of professionals, providing strategic direction, influencing policy, driving quality and continuous improvement underpinned by sound research.

As well as support from the two renal co-leads and colleagues the postholder will also receive programme and administrative support from the National Clinical Networks team as well as a close working relationship with other enabling Te Whatu Ora teams including Service Improvement & Innovation, Data & Digital, Workforce, Communications and National Clinical Service Planning.

The National Clinical Director for transplant is a funded position up to 0.4 FTE. The initial term of the position is two years, and you may be based in any part of Aotearoa NZ.

a) What would you focus on as the National Clinical for Renal Transplant?

b) What are the significant challenges for renal transplant in the next two years?

c) What would a world-class equitable renal transplant service across Aotearoa NZ look like in five years' time?

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to attend an interview with a panel nominated by the National Clinical Networks
