Job Description

Health Improvement Practitioner – Tāmaki Health Clinics – Christchurch

Locations: White Cross Shirley.

Working hours: 0.7 FTE

Tāmaki Health – Wellness Support Team

Kia Ora | Hello | Talofa Lava | Ni Hao | Namaste | Mālō e Lelei | Bula Vinaka | Kamusta

  • Do you want to be part of a large, award-winning multidisciplinary team with a strong, supportive culture?
  • Do you bring the cultural and linguistic competencies to engage meaningfully with our diverse Canterbury communities?
  • Are you passionate about making a difference early and effectively in people’s lives?

Join our Wellness Support Team (WST), a pioneering primary mental health service delivering integrated care to high-needs communities. We are seeking qualified professionals to join our Te Tumu Waiora service as Health Improvement Practitioners (HIPs) across our Canterbury GP clinics.

About the Role

As a HIP you will work within one of our busy General Practice clinics providing cover operational hours service to our whaiora.

This is a rewarding generalist role embedded in primary care. You will deliver brief, behavioural and psychological health interventions and work in collaboration with GPs, nurses, health coaches, and support workers.

Health Improvement Practitioners (HIPs) use Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (FACT) – a brief, evidence-based model designed to create meaningful change in patients’ lives. You’ll work within a fast-paced, walk-in clinic environment, seeing patients as part of routine care, with warm handovers from the clinical team.

Eligibility Requirements

To be considered for this role, you must have:

  • Registration under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (HPCA) or full NZAC membership.
  • Experience using brief, evidence-based psychological interventions.
  • An understanding of the importance of following evidence-based models, policies, practices and procedures
  • Exceptional people skills for building relationships within multi-disciplinary teams in General practice.
  • Confidence in managing mild to moderate mental/social health presentations

About Us

Tāmaki Health’s Wellness Support Team was established in 2012 by Dr David Codyre, one of New Zealand’s leading voices in primary mental health.

We provide holistic support that integrates mental, physical, and social wellbeing for individuals and whānau in high-needs communities. Our stepped care approach ensures timely access to the right level of support.

What We Offer

  • Work in a supportive, well-established multidisciplinary team
  • Structured induction, supervision, mentoring, and ongoing FACT training
  • Regular peer review, reflective practice, and professional development time
  • Flexible working options and a variety of clinic locations across Christchurch
  • Opportunities for growth, innovation, and potential to train others in the HIP model
  • A chance to truly make a difference in the lives of people often underserved by traditional mental health services

Apply now – we'd love to hear from you! Please include a cover letter with your application.

This role may be filled prior to the advertised closing date, so early applications are encouraged.

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.
