With so many exciting career and lifestyle opportunities, our team with specialist knowledge in-country is here to help you. Many of us made the move down under, so we understand that relocating can be daunting. We provide our doctors with every possible support at each step of the way.
By personalising the experience, we tailor positions to suit your needs and interests – whether you prefer coastal, rural, or a city lifestyle. As keen travellers ourselves, we can provide firsthand knowledge about any location in New Zealand to ensure you get the right experience for you and your family.
We work closely with hospitals and clinics in New Zealand, with new jobs every day. We welcome enquiries from doctors who work in all specialties and recruit RMO’s and consultants for locum, fixed-term, and permanent positions across New Zealand.
Let us help you make the professional career decision that could change the way you live your life.
