Are you seeking that role with real impact and meaning? Would you like to see the tangible outcome of your work, in your community, every day? At Northland DHB, we're driving health equality for Te Tai Tokerau, and we want you to be a part of our diverse and passionate whānau.

Join Northland DHB and you'll quickly discover you're more than part of the team – you belong to our family. Right now, we have an exciting opportunity for a skilled Alcohol and Drug Clinician to join our Whangarei based community multidisciplinary team.

Applicants will be qualified health professionals with a current registration (such as a Registered Nurse, Social Worker, Counsellor, or be eligible for DAPAANZ registration), and have experience working in the alcohol and drug field preferably with skills in assessing and treating people experiencing co-existing disorders.

We are a team that develops good working relationships with other providers, and are looking for a clinician who is innovative in their practice to deliver positive outcomes for our service users and community.

Northland DHB is committed to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and holds stewardship for equitable health outcomes for Māori as Tāngata Whenua as the highest priority.

In addition to holding relevant registration you will hold a clean drivers licence as travel throughout Northland is required. If you can work independently in a supportive environment with a team committed to best practice you are the person we could be looking for.

A career with Northland DHB will see you action meaningful change in the region we love, and in your professional development – all whilst enjoying everything the stunning North has to offer. You really can enjoy the best of both.
