Job description

Junior Implementation Consultant

Location: Christchurch, Canterbury Region, New Zealand

Department: Professional Services

Workplace: hybrid

Employment Type: full

Description

Are you early in your IT career and looking for an opportunity to build on your technical skills, tackle new challenges and work with technology that makes a real difference?

We're looking for a Junior Implementation Consultant to join our team in Christchurch!

At Orion Health, we develop technology that helps healthcare organisations connect information, improve workflows and deliver better patient care. As a Junior Implementation Consultant, you'll play a hands-on role in helping our customers successfully implement and use our software solutions.

Working alongside experienced consultants, you'll gain exposure to software configuration, systems integration, troubleshooting and customer engagement. This is a great opportunity for someone with a foundation in IT who's eager to expand their technical knowledge, take on new responsibilities and develop their career in health technology.

What you'll be doing:

• Assisting with the installation, configuration and implementation of Orion Health software solutions.
• Supporting technical investigations, troubleshooting and testing to ensure our solutions work as expected.
• Working with databases, SQL and other technologies to support implementation activities.
• Collaborating with experienced consultants, developers and project teams to deliver successful customer outcomes.
• Building your understanding of healthcare systems, integration technologies and industry standards.
• Engaging with customers and developing your confidence in communicating technical information.

About You

We're looking for someone with a good technical foundation, a natural curiosity for how things work and a genuine enthusiasm for solving problems.

Ideally, you'll bring:

• 12+ months of experience in a software-focused IT role, such as application support, software development, testing or systems implementation.
• A relevant qualification in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems or a related field (whether through university, polytechnic or another pathway), or equivalent hands-on technical experience.
• A basic understanding of SQL, JavaScript or similar technologies.
• An interest in software systems, integration and technical troubleshooting.
• Strong communication skills and the confidence to engage with customers and colleagues.
• A proactive, solutions-focused attitude, with the ability to think critically, take initiative and ask questions when needed.
• A willingness to learn new technologies and develop your technical capabilities.

Any exposure to healthcare technologies or integration standards such as HL7 and FHIR would be a bonus, but certainly isn't essential.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who enjoys getting stuck into technical challenges, is keen to keep learning and wants to build a career in software implementation.
