RN Ward and Day Stay- Casual

TŪRANGA THE ROLE

We’re growing our casual nursing team and looking for Registered Nurses who enjoy the flexibility and variety that casual work offers.

We keep our casual pool small on purpose — so you get regular shifts, stay familiar with our processes, and remain connected with the team. Casuals play a vital role here, and we truly value the support they provide when our regular staff are unavailable.

Shifts are staggered and typically up to 8 hours long. The earliest start is 6:45am, and the latest finish is 9:30pm, Monday to Friday. Occasionally, there may be an overnight or Saturday morning shift to cover.

As a casual, you might be booked in advance or called in at short notice to cover illness or unexpected absences. That’s why we’re especially keen to hear from nurses who can offer good flexibility across the days and hours mentioned.

KO KOE ABOUT YOU

You’re a fully registered nurse with solid surgical experience and ideally, you’ve worked in a private hospital setting before.
