- A positive attitude to life-long learning and the desire to deliver the best evidence-based practice for patients and whānau.
- A strong understanding of inequity and the contributing factors, as well as dedication to help your patients/clients achieve their health outcomes
- A passion for speech language therapy and helping patients and their whānau achieve their goals
- The ability to work under pressure and manage your workload independently and prioritise tasks accordingly
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and able to work with a wide variety of people
- A current full driver’s licence
- A degree in Speech Language Therapy and membership of (or be eligible for membership of) the NZSTA.

**About us**

We are a small but dedicated and friendly SLT team and we aim to deliver a high quality, patient centered, responsive, evidence-based and equitable speech language therapy service. We place high value on creating a safe and inclusive working environment.

The Tairāwhiti region has a population of approximately 50,000 and about half of the population identifies as Māori. There are beautiful beaches and walks surrounding Gisborne and there are no traffic jams or long commutes. The weather is one of the best in country with long warm summers and surf all year round. Parking at the hospital is free for staff and visitors, so you could be finishing work and be swimming at the beach 10 minutes later.
