Mō te tūnga | The Role

This is not just a job - it's a calling.

You will stand for the wellbeing of tamariki and rangatahi, walking alongside whānau as they navigate uncertainty, transformation and growth. You will bring aroha, clarity and optimism while maintaining mana.

  • Flexible working arrangements and wellbeing supports
  • Ongoing kaupapa Māori learning and professional development
  • A workplace that respects, reflects, and celebrates diversity, inclusion and te ao Māori

We have an enviable lifestyle, which is supported by world class community facilities. The Grey District is a great place to live, work play or invest. Enjoy fresh local produce and friendly Southern hospitality. If this sounds like you, please apply and come and be a part of our community.

You will have:

  • Full SWRB registration (or eligibility to register)
  • A recognised social work qualification
  • A genuine, strengths-based practice approach
  • A full, clean New Zealand driver's licence (historic convictions may be considered on a case-by-case basis)
  • An unwavering commitment to working in partnership with whānau

Also valuable:

  • Experience in statutory social work (preferred but not essential)
  • Strong communication, resilience, and cultural competence
  • Knowledge of tikanga Māori and Pasifika cultures
  • Solid documentation and digital literacy skills
