Health New Zealand : Te Whatu Ora is inviting Australian-trained General (Internal) Medicine Registrars to join us for the 2027 training year.
Why Aussie Registrars are moving to NZ

- Seamless Career Move: Streamlined MCNZ registration, clinical time counts toward experience and seniority.
- Financial Certainty: Competitive salaries with rostered hours built in and no overtime paperwork.
- Practice with Confidence: NZ's no-fault ACC system means less defensive medicine, more clinical focus.
- Immediate Rights: Australian citizens live, work, and access services from day one.

Pension contributions (6% if eligible), professional indemnity cover, relocation assistance, protected teaching time, and study leave funding.
