If you value working collaboratively and have the expertise and experience to support midwifery ākonga, we are keen to hear from you.

**About the role**

We are looking for a Te Ara Ō Hine-Tapu Ora Liasion to join our dynamic team for Te Kuratini o Waikato Bachelor of Midwifery programme.

This is fully funded by the Ministry of Health to address inequities of midwives and midwifery ākonga that exist for Māori and Pasifika.
