Tauranga, New Zealand Head Medical Full time

Head Medical is seeking post foundation doctors (RMO/SHO/CT) for Orthopaedics opportunities. You will be based at Whakatāne hospital in the stunning Bay of Plenty region.

  • Relaxed coastal community, with some of the best beaches in NZ on your doorstep
  • Only 1 hr drive to Tauranga (NZ’s fastest growing city)
  • Beautiful natural surroundings– white sandy beaches, native forest & birds, dolphins and orcas
  • Salary: $110,710 - $121,920 NZD (depending on experience)

The Hospital

There are two hospitals in the region, Whakatāne hospital has 110 beds, and Tauranga Hospital with 359 beds. Together, the two sites cater to a regional population of 230,000 and the emergency department sees in the region of 73,669 attendances per year.

Working closely with consultants, you will also attend clinical meetings with opportunities to further broaden your clinical knowledge and gain exposure to a broad case load.

There is a focus on Māori health and a strong commitment to closing the gaps and reducing health inequalities by re-designing pathways with Māori (who make up 25.6% of the region’s population), to promote better access to healthcare services.

The Location

Whakatāne (town population 37,100, Eastern Bay of Plenty population 50,500) and the neighbouring township of Ōhope offer a warm, relaxed lifestyle with over 50 km of coastline to enjoy and explore. Located just 1 hour’s drive from Tauranga City and 3.5 hours from Auckland, the region features some of the best beaches in NZ, such as Ōhope, Pukehina and Ōhiwa as well as Mount Maunganui and Papamoa further up the coast. The warm and sunny climate makes it ideal for those who love the great outdoors and the beach life.

There is a domestic airport with daily flights to Auckland’s international airport, making connections to/from Whakatāne very easy (45 minutes).

What Head Medical can do for you

Arranging a position overseas is very exciting, but we understand that it can also be daunting and time-consuming. We’re the UK’s specialist in international medical recruitment and we’ve helped many Doctors relocate since we first started out in 2008. We know it’s important to balance career opportunities with lifestyle and we’ll talk through your plans and will get to know you to make sure we find the right role in the right location. Once we have secured a job for you, we’ll manage the Medical Registration and Visa application process, and support you (and your family) with the relocation itself.
