About Tend Health
Tend Health is one of New Zealand's largest and most innovative primary healthcare providers, serving over 120,000+ enrolled patients across 20+ medical centres from Auckland to Invercargill. Launched in 2020, we're revolutionising healthcare delivery through our unique blend of cutting-edge technology and compassionate care.
We're committed to helping make New Zealand the healthiest nation in the world through smarter, more accessible and equitable primary healthcare. Our innovative approach combines:
24/7 Online Care: Virtual appointments with an average waiting time of just 2 hours

Equity Focus: Achieving 20% higher immunisation rates among Tamariki Māori in Auckland compared to district averages
Proven Results: 95% of patients report their needs were met through our online urgent care service
We've recently become our own Primary Health Organisation, allowing us to contract directly with Health New Zealand and streamline funding flows to deliver more coordinated, efficient care and better patient outcomes.

In this role you'll drive operational excellence, support financial performance, and ensure alignment with our innovative care model. This role is perfect for a strategic thinker who thrives on influence-based leadership but also gets into the depths of the detail and delivery to make sure stuff just happens. You’ll be driven making a real impact on healthcare delivery across diverse communities, and supporting the local operational leaders and teams to move faster, while supporting teams through change in a highly person centric way.
