Clinical Educator/Registered Nurse - School of Nursing

Culturally responsive practice

Teach & mentor future nurse

Permanent, part-time (0.6FTE annualised) role based at AUT's North Campus

Auckland University of Technology (AUT) is New Zealand's newest university and one of its most distinctive. Centred on students and grounded in knowledge that works, AUT is 5-star rated by QS, with more than 27,000 students and 4,000 staff based primarily across three Auckland campuses. It's a place of real opportunity, where the values of Pono, Tika and Aroha shape how talented, progressive people work together – and you'll feel that in the culture, in the collaboration and in the difference the work makes for students, communities and the world.

Our community is stronger because of the role Te Tiriti plays in how we operate, and because Māori and Pacific knowledge, leadership and contribution are central to who we are. We embrace diversity in all its forms and are proud to welcome people of all ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, religious and political beliefs, socio-economic situations and accessibility needs.

The School of Nursing at AUT has recently been established as its own school, recognising the significant impact and achievement of nursing at AUT as part of a wider promotion of clearer school identities and disciplinary alignments (whilst also enhancing faculty-level connectivity and addressing school size disparities).
