Job Description

  • New year, new career? Start with ACC on 18 January 2027
  • Make a real impact by supporting people through their recovery journey after injury

About us | Mō mātou

About the role | Mō te tūranga mahi

Join a supportive and collaborative team helping New Zealanders navigate their recovery after an accident. As a Recovery Assistant Level 1, you'll provide proactive support to clients, helping them access the services, resources and information they need to progress their recovery journey.

This is a desk-based role with no face-to-face client contact required. It is also a highly phone-based role, and you can expect to spend the majority of your day taking and making calls to clients, providers and other stakeholders. Alongside phone-based work, you'll manage emails, complete case-related tasks, coordinate support services and maintain accurate information across multiple systems. Our team works in a many-to-many model, meaning clients are supported by a team rather than relying on one individual. This approach promotes continuity for clients, encourages knowledge sharing, and creates a collaborative environment where colleagues work together to achieve the best outcomes.

No two days are the same in this varied and rewarding role. You'll help clients understand their recovery plans and entitlements, coordinate support, solve problems and explain decisions, including occasions when the outcome may not be what a client was hoping for. In return, you'll have the opportunity to build valuable expertise in rehabilitation and recovery support while making a meaningful difference in the lives of New Zealanders.

There is a set start date of 18 January 2027, and applicants must be available to commence full-time from this date. This role is based in Dunedin and works between 8.00am and 5.30pm, Monday to Friday. Flexible working arrangements may be considered once training has been successfully completed.

The appointing salary for this role is $67,442. ACC offers a comprehensive benefits package which at present includes an advantageous superannuation scheme (9% contribution) with features like no mandatory employee contribution, optional life and income protection insurance.

About you | Mōu

Don't rule yourself out if you haven't worked in a similar role before. We welcome applicants from a variety of backgrounds, including customer service, healthcare, administration, insurance and other roles centred on helping people.

We're looking for people who can bring:

  • Customer service experience and the ability to build rapport with people from a range of backgrounds
  • Strong communication skills and confidence explaining information clearly
  • Comfort working on the phone for a significant part of your day supporting customers
  • Empathy, resilience and good judgement when supporting customers through challenging situations
  • The ability to review information carefully and make sound decisions
  • A collaborative approach and the ability to work effectively as part of a team
  • Confidence using multiple digital systems and technology tools simultaneously
  • The ability to work in a structured, fast-paced environment and adapt to changing priorities throughout the day
  • You must hold New Zealand work rights at the time of application.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
