Te Whatu Ora Nelson Marlborough's Māori Health and Vulnerable Populations Team, Te Waka Hauora, has a permanent full-time position available for a Poumanaaki - Māori Cultural Support Worker, within the Māori Health Service team. We are building a centre of excellence in regards to Māori Health and this role will support that journey.

The role will be diverse in nature as you will provide cultural and social support to patients and whānau that are admitted to our hospital. The role will also focus on supporting bicultural education of our hospital staff and also support wider community based projects or programmes being run in our communities by the Māori Health team.
