Mo tenei mahi | About this job

We are offering an exciting dual-role opportunity for a dedicated individual to join our team in a full-time capacity (37.5 hours per week). This position combines two essential roles: Placement Coordinator for Social Work (0.5 FTE) and Kaiako for the Bachelor of Bicultural Social Work programme (0.5 FTE).

As the Placement Coordinator , you will manage fieldwork placements, ensuring tauira are matched with suitable agencies and supervised throughout their practicum. You'll build relationships with stakeholders, support tauira from enrolment to graduation, and contribute to practicum teaching where needed.

In the Kaiako role, you will teach various levels of the Nga Poutoko Whakarara Oranga (Kaupae 7) Bachelor of Bicultural Social Work, from certificate to third-year level.

You will also engage in research (rangahau) to enhance teaching and contribute to Matauranga Maori and the programme's vision.

Mou | About you

You will also bring with you:

Masters Degree (Level 9) in Social Work or related subject and demonstrate either holding or showing equivalence for NZQA standards assessed in this programme

You must be registered with the Social Work Registration Board (SWRB)

New Zealand Certificate in Adult and Tertiary Teaching (Level 5) or equivalent
