Integrated Services Manager, Whakamaru

At the Wellington City Mission, we want everyone to experience empowerment, transformation, and fullness of life.

Whakamaru is our integrated services hub – whether someone comes in for kai, a shower, medical care or just a warm welcome, our team wraps around them with support that’s joined-up and mana-enhancing.

We’re searching for a dynamic, people-focused Integrated Services Manager to lead our innovative service integration at Whakamaru.

About the mahi

Working within the Community Services Team you will provide strategic leadership and coordinate service integration across multiple functions, bringing the vision of Whakamaru to life through:

  • Leading an evolving and exciting integrated services programme
  • Building collaborative culture across a range of diverse services
  • Championing clear communication, joined-up workflows and purposeful connection across teams
  • Building strong partnerships with our external partners to deliver coordinated, whanau-led support
  • Using data, storytelling, and collective wisdom to continuously improve outcomes for manuhiri
  • Creating a space where Wellington comes together where there is ‘no us and them’

About you

You will be as comfortable sitting alongside and engaging with our manuhiri, as much as you are thinking strategically and working in partnership with all our stakeholders and you will bring with you:

  • Proven strong leadership capability – able to connect, coordinate, and inspire
  • Experience working across complex environments in social services, health or community development
  • Great communication and relational skills – you know how to “read the room”
  • Experience using data and evidence to inform service design and delivery

The opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to help shape one of the most transformational spaces in Wellington social services. Whakamaru is evolving, and we need someone who’s excited by change, committed to collaboration, and ready to co-create a model that’s reflective, inclusive, and deeply human.

You’ll join an organisation grounded in aroha, whanaungatanga, tūmanako and manaakitanga, with a vision of fullness of life for all.

What we offer

At Wellington City Mission, we are dedicated to creating a supportive and inclusive work environment that values the wellbeing of our employees. We embrace a good team culture in a supportive environment. Alongside a consultative management style as we develop and shape our services.
