Join 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. This is mahi that will improve the health and wellbeing of everyone in Aotearoa, and we've got an opportunity for you to be part of it.

**Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity**

The National Public Health Service (NPHS) within Te Whatu Ora, works towards Pae Ora (healthy futures) for all by engaging with the wider determinants that impact people's health, focusing on wellbeing, health promotion, protection, prevention, and population-level interventions. We are connected across boundaries to deliver public health services that are nationally planned, regionally delivered and locally tailored.

The Intelligence directorate is a new structure, a central population and public health operational Intelligence team that is regionally networked and collaborative across organisations and agencies. The establishment of the Intelligence directorate in NPHS gives us the opportunity to review our products and processes and ensure we are honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi. In our work, we provide advice and deliver products that are used to inform evidence-based decision-making across the NPHS. Our data and products need to be informative and interpretable; they also need to reflect the voices and stories of our communities.

Are you interested in learning more about public health intelligence and building a career in this exciting field? We have an opportunity available to join our directorate as a **Coordinator** supporting our Intelligence teams. This permanent, full-time role will see you provide a range of day-to-day administrative and coordination functions, including project coordination and product delivery, to enable the Intelligence directorate to deliver on a high quality work programme.

Te Whatu Ora supports flexible and hybrid working for our kaimahi. In roles that don't require an in-person element, we encourage you to ‘work from where you are.' We want our national teams to be made up of diverse people from across the motu, just like our health system.

**Nau mai, uru mai | Come and join us**

When you join us, you become part of transforming the health system. This is a once in a lifetime change, that will touch the lives of everyone in Aotearoa, and future generations.

Our name, 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.

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.
