Are you looking to make a real difference in your community? We are currently looking for empathetic and passionate Support Workers to work within and across our Community Services. If you are looking for flexibility around other commitments, we have a part-time option on offer.

What does a Support Worker do?

As part of a wider team, you will assist our clients to live as independently as possible, within their homes and community.

  • Employee Assistance program service anytime you need health and wellbeing support.


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. Whilst you will be part of a large national organisation, you will join a dedicated and close-knit team.

What are we looking for?

  • Previous healthcare or care-giving experience is desirable, although not essential
  • Excellent communication skills.
