A clinical career with room to move

New Zealand's primary and urgent care environments offer opportunities to apply your clinical experience across a broad range of patient presentations, work with different communities and continue developing your professional expertise.

At Tāmaki Health, you can expect:

• Clinical scope and variety: Apply your experience across General Practice or Urgent Care, with exposure to a diverse range of presentations and patient needs.
• Autonomy and professional trust: Bring your clinical judgement and experience to the forefront, with the opportunity to practise independently within your scope.
• A network of clinical expertise: Connect with experienced doctors, nurses and multidisciplinary colleagues across an established healthcare network.
• Opportunities to develop: Continue building your clinical capability, explore different clinical environments and grow your career over time.
• A team behind you: Be part of a wider organisation that values clinical contribution and recognises the importance of support, collaboration and professional development.

More than a relocation. A supported transition.

Moving your medical career to another country involves more than securing a role. There's registration to navigate, a new healthcare system to understand and a new place to call home.

We've welcomed doctors from overseas and understand what it takes to make that transition successful. Our team will work alongside you throughout the process, helping you move from initial interest to feeling confident and established in your new role.

Our support includes:

• Medical registration: Guidance through the Medical Council of New Zealand (MCNZ) registration process.
• Immigration assistance: Access to an immigration adviser to help navigate visa requirements and the relocation process.
• Relocation contribution: Financial assistance towards relocation expenses, including flights, accommodation and getting established in New Zealand.
• A structured introduction: Comprehensive induction and training to familiarise you with the New Zealand healthcare environment, clinical systems, processes and expectations.

You won't be expected to figure everything out on your own. From your initial registration enquiries through to your first days in clinic, we'll help you navigate the move.

What you'll bring

We're keen to hear from doctors with a solid clinical foundation, sound judgement and an interest in continuing their careers in New Zealand.

You'll ideally have:

• A recognised medical qualification and relevant postgraduate clinical experience.
• Experience in General Practice, Family Medicine, Emergency Medicine or Urgent Care.
• Ideally, at least three years of postgraduate clinical experience.
• Confidence assessing, diagnosing and managing a broad range of patient presentations relevant to your clinical background.
• The ability to make sound clinical decisions and work autonomously within your scope of practice.
• A collaborative approach to working with colleagues and delivering patient-centred care.
• An interest in obtaining Medical Council of New Zealand (MCNZ) registration and relocating to New Zealand.

A different kind of life outside the clinic

Imagine finishing a day at work and having the coastline, walking trails or open countryside within easy reach. Or spending your weekends exploring somewhere completely new.

New Zealand offers a different balance between work and life, with the opportunity to build a rewarding medical career while making more room for the things that matter outside it.

• Make the most of the outdoors: From beautiful beaches and coastal walks to mountains, lakes and national parks, there's plenty to explore.
• Find your kind of community: Choose from lively city neighbourhoods, coastal towns and relaxed regional communities.
• Enjoy a different pace: Create more space for family, friends, travel and experiences beyond your working week.
• Build a life here: Experience a multicultural, welcoming environment and the opportunity to make New Zealand home.
