You’ll Bring:

  • Strong community ties and a heart for whānau.
  • Experience in education, social work, youth work, or community health.
  • Confidence in Te Ao Māori and a full driver’s license are essential.
  • Empathy, resilience, and the ability to build trust.

If you believe in the power of whanaungatanga to create change, we’d love to hear from you.
