Life is a collection of small moments: meaningful moments, challenging moments, moments to remember. At SCDHB, we want to support our people to enjoy more of the moments that matter. Are you ready to join us?

Right now, we’re looking for a proven Manager to bring to life all of the recommendations identified as being the key outcomes of our comprehensive review of MHA services within South Canterbury.

You will also be instrumental in ensuring these are fully integrated together with the priorities which have been developed around the strategic direction for Mental Health and Addiction Services nationally, (including Whakamaua: Māori Health Action Plan 2020-2025).

You will be someone with exceptionally strong project management skills, who has proven success at overseeing/completing large-scale projects in the past.

You’ll have the ability to engage collaboratively and effectively with a wide range of stakeholders that span the continuum of care provision across our district.

This will be a rare and genuine opportunity for you to use your skills in critical thinking, problem-solving and change management on a defining project which has the potential to future proof the approach and direction that MHA services will take locally.

If you’ve always wanted to prove your inspirational leadership style in a critical industry such as health, this moment is yours!

Why choose South Canterbury DHB?

As one of the country’s smaller DHBs, our people always have room to move and grow. You’ll enjoy the advantages of a flat team structure, where processes run smoothly and there are no barriers to leadership or innovation.

On top of all that, you’ll get to enjoy the fantastic Timaru lifestyle: between the beach and the mountains, that long-coveted work-life balance is truly achievable here.

At SCDHB, integrity, collaboration, accountability, respect and excellence are at the heart of everything we do. We are a proudly diverse team, as we know a diverse and inclusive workforce achieves the best outcomes for our patients and communities. If you share in these core values and bring them into every aspect of your approach to work, we can’t wait for you to join us.
