Consultant Psychologist Sought for Wellbeing Strategy Development

This procurement is to engage a suitably qualified consultant psychologist currently registered with the New Zealand Psychology Board. They should have experience in clinical psychology, be a systems thinker, and understand how to influence the strategic wellbeing direction of an organisation.

Essentially the role is to provide expert advice for the design and implementation of a wellbeing strategy and framework to enable the development of wellbeing services for our people. This is to ensure Fire and Emergency has the appropriate expert strategic advice on the prevention of work-related psychological harm and the provision of support when harm occurs.

The national wellbeing lead will work alongside the National Medical Officer as an expert advisor to the organisation and with our contracted clinical providers and employee assistance programme provider to provide a consistent best-practice approach.
