Job Description

Position Overview
The Centre for Public Health Research, based at Massey University’s Wellington campus, is dedicated to hauora and health research that improves public health, reduces health inequities, and informs policy development. We are committed to training new health researchers and maintaining strong connections with policymakers to ensure our research makes a real impact.

We are seeking a Research Assistant – Pacific Health Research to support fieldwork and research projects. A key focus of this role is a study on Pacific children’s access to and use of paediatric palliative care in Aotearoa New Zealand. This research will identify challenges and enablers, providing evidence to enhance healthcare policies and guidelines for Pacific communities.

This is a fixed-term position for 12 months, based in Wellington, with a salary range of $48,596 - $71,027, depending on skills and experience.

Key responsibilities:

  • Supporting the promotion and implementation of Pacific health research.
  • Assisting with the recruitment of Pacific children and caregivers receiving palliative care.
  • Conducting interviews and administering questionnaires with research participants.
  • Supporting data collection and processing.
  • Assisting with Pacific-focused health initiatives led by Dr. Sunia Foliaki at Massey University.


What we are looking for:

  • Strong organisational skills and experience in data collection and processing.
  • Proficiency in MS Office, particularly Excel.
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills.
  • Self-motivation and the ability to work independently.
  • Ability to engage effectively with Pacific communities and diverse groups.
  • A passion for health and research.
  • Flexibility to work early evenings and weekends when required.
  • A clean, current New Zealand driver’s licence is essential.
  • A tertiary qualification in a relevant field is preferred.


An ability to communicate in a Pacific language would be an advantage.

At Massey University, we are committed to being a Tiriti-led organisation. We welcome applicants who have an appreciation of the Aotearoa New Zealand context and a willingness to understand and support the aspirations of Māori and Pacific communities.

This role is suited to someone looking for a new challenge, with a strong interest in Pacific health and research, and who enjoys working as part of a team. There are many professional development opportunities, and this is a chance to contribute to an exciting and innovative research project.

For enquiries, please contact:
Dr. Sunia Foliaki – s.foliaki@massey.ac.nz
Prof. Jeroen Douwes – J.Douwes@massey.ac.nz
