About Oranga Tamariki—Ministry for Children

Our team is dedicated to ensuring the time rangataki spend at Epuni is transformative, meeting their needs and improving their future prospects.

- Providing daily care and support to rangataki, including assisting with re-engaging with school/vocation, attending appointments, and managing themselves within the home
- Establishing rapport with rangataki who have experienced trauma and assist with redirecting behavior
- Supporting rangataki to connect with peers, mentors, whanau, work, and community-based programs
Qualifications and Skills
To be successful in this role, you will need:
- High-quality skills to work with rangataki who may have behavioral issues
- Studies or qualifications in psychology, social sciences, social work, education (not required but beneficial)
- Knowledge or high motivation to learn Tikanga and Te Reo Maori
- Able to operate within a reflective practice environment
Benefits
This role offers a competitive hourly rate of $26.00 + 8% holiday pay on hours worked. We also offer paid training and professional development opportunities to help you grow and thrive in your career.
