Dunedin, New Zealand Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora Full time

Join Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora at a key time of change where you will meaningfully contribute to our kaupapa of creating a more equitable, accessible, cohesive and people-centred health system.
**Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity**

The Sustainability team within the Office of the Chief Executive brings to life our strategy and approach to sustainability, and unites contributions from across the organisation. Our aim is to integrate sustainability principles and practices across Health NZ, with the team monitoring and reporting on the organisation's overall sustainability performance.

This is a permanent full-time role based in Te Waipounamu, South Island, with a strong preference for the role to operate from Ōtepoti | Dunedin, but open to the role operating predominately from another major hospital site in the South Island such as Whakatū | Nelson or Ōtautahi | Christchurch. The team will have two full time sustainability advisors who will be required to build relationships and drive engagement across Te Waipounamu, therefore travel across the region is an important part of the role so a full driver's licence is required.

**Mōu | About you**

You have several years of post-qualification experience in a specialist sustainability role, supporting and delivering sustainability for your organisation. Your passion for sustainability is clear, and as relationship building with senior stakeholders inside and outside the organisation is a vital aspect to this role, you must be able to demonstrate your ability to build rapport and trust at all levels. Your knowledge, energy and enthusiasm are key and will translate well to an ability to bring people along with you.

This is a fantastic opportunity to play an important part in moving the health system towards a more sustainable future.

**Ko te mahi e tika ana mō te ao hurihuri nei |Work that suits today's ever-changing world**

Health NZ supports flexible and hybrid working for our kaimahi. This role requires an in-person element, with the potential for some work from home days. We want our national teams to be made up of diverse people from across the motu, just like our health system.

**Tō mātou whakahaere ki te tika, te rerekētanga, me te whai wāhi mai |Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion**

Te Whatu Ora means ‘the weaving of wellness'. Whatu is the combining together of people, resources, organisations, thoughts and actions for the betterment and wellbeing of all. Whatu is also a direct reference to the pupil of the eye, and the vision required of the new entity and system.

At Health NZ we acknowledge and respect our people's diversity and spiritual needs, ensuring a safe workplace that is a whānau orientated and supportive environment. We are working towards a system that better meets the complex demands of a growing population, addresses the persistent inequalities experienced by Māori and ensures greater access, experience and outcomes for those traditionally not well served by the system - Māori, Pacific and Disabled People.
