The Ministry of Health is the government's principal advisor on health and disability policy. Through our leadership of the health and disability system, the Ministry helps ensure better health outcomes for New Zealanders. We work with health and disability providers throughout the wider health sector and manage a programme of work that supports government priorities and builds on the integral strengths and assets of communities and families and whānau. The Ministry is a funder, purchaser and regulator of health and disability services in New Zealand. Health policy choices are complex and challenging, and we have to provide clear and practical advice to the government, supported by strong analysis of issues. When you work at the Ministry of Health you’ll play an active role in improving, promoting and protecting the health of all New Zealanders. Employment opportunities at the Ministry are hugely varied. Whether you are a policy analyst or IT specialist, a clinician or administrator, a project manager or a communications advisor, we need your skills and passion to make a difference.
