Are you looking to make a real difference in your community? We are currently looking for empathetic and passionate Support Workers to work across our Community Services. Whether you are looking for flexibility around other commitments or would prefer regular rostered shifts, we have a variety of part-time and casual options on offer.

Part-time and casual positions available.

This is an opportunity to join New Zealand's largest community healthcare provider with the potential to gain experience in a variety of disciplines including aged care, disability, mental health and rehabilitation.
