Dunedin, New Zealand Southern District Health Board (New Zealand) Full time
Senior Medical Officer - Respiratory Services

Salary: Base salary from ASMS 2024 (NZD 185,380 - 267,980)

Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora is firmly grounded in the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and is dedicated to serving all New Zealanders. Through integration and collaboration, we’re building a health system underpinned by partnership, equity, sustainability, whānau-centred care, and excellence.

About the role
Joining the team at Dunedin Hospital, you will provide a mixture of inpatient and outpatient services and interface with respiratory labs. Direct clinical service will normally be based on 10 sessions of nominally 4.0 hours duration between Monday to Friday. This role will include participation in the after-hours respiratory rosters for weeknights and weekends.

The department of Respiratory Medicine is actively involved in teaching and accredited for postgraduate training by the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP). We currently have five other respiratory physicians across the district. On either site, the respiratory service has certified Respiratory Physiologists providing a wide range of diagnostic tests including challenge testing.

About You
You will need to be, or be eligible for, vocational registration as a respiratory physician by the New Zealand Medical Council, including having Fellowship of Royal Australasian College of Physicians or an equivalent qualification that enables specialist registration with the MCNZ.

You will also need:

  • Competency with te ao Māori, tikanga, and te reo Māori or a commitment to starting your journey and taking ownership of your learning and growth.
  • Experience in projects/initiatives which give effect to Te Tiriti principles and frameworks, and the application of Mātauranga Māori and Kaupapa Māori approaches, particularly in healthcare settings.

Working for Health New Zealand

Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora is ‘the weaving of wellness’. We're dedicated to ensuring excellent healthcare for the people of Aotearoa/New Zealand. The Equity Work Programme at Health NZ focuses on helping everyone in the health system think about equity when they do their work.

Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion

  • We want to see the real you in your application and welcome the real you on board if you come and work with us. Skills are gained across many areas of our life, not just in formal employment.

  • We particularly welcome applications from our diverse Māori, Pacific, disabled, and rainbow communities.
