Job Description
We’re looking for a passionate and hands-on Clinical Manager to lead our small 2+-bed care home in the heart of Tauranga.
This is a full-time permanent position, working 40 hours a week across Monday to Friday, with an early 7am start on Fridays to support the morning routine and connect with the team. The ideal person for this role is not someone who wants to sit behind a desk all day, but someone who thrives on being on the floor, leading by example, and keeping their clinical skills sharp.
This role is perfect for a senior RN ready to step up, a current Clinical Manager seeking a smaller, more personal care environment, or someone looking to stay connected to hands-on care while leading a team.
You'll bring confidence in clinical systems, interRAI, and audits, while also supporting and mentoring your team. You'll be a visible, engaged leader, recognised for your approachable and hands-on style. You’ll be passionate about the care of our elderly residents and enjoy being involved in everything from clinical care planning to wound care and supporting your RNs and Caregivers day-to-day. A great communicator, you’ll be comfortable working alongside whānau, residents, and visiting health professionals.
