About New Zealand Blood Service
New Zealand Blood and Organ Service (NZBS) is dedicated to saving lives. Every year, tens of thousands of generous people donate their time, blood and plasma to us for free. In addition to our vein to vein service in transfusion we also provide national services in organ transplantation, cellular therapies and tissue banking. We exist to ensure the efficient delivery of safe blood and tissue products on a time critical basis throughout New Zealand and through the generosity of our donors, we are able to help save lives.
Our shared values are at the heart of our organisation's culture and guide our behaviour each and every day. These values inspire, motivate us and drive us to provide the very best service to the New Zealand public.

About the role
Working for the New Zealand Blood and Organ Service (NZBS), our Registered Nurses undertake donor health assessments and perform whole blood, plasma and platelet collection procedures.

If education is a goal for you, our Workforce Coach workshop will foster your training skills and support you coaching new and progressing staff.
Salary offered - $75,773 to $106,739 depending on skills, registration, and experience.
Additionally, if you choose to work with us, you will:
- Enjoy a better work-life balance (no nights!) and working with healthy donors
