Team Manager
Mō Tēnei Tūranga Mahi | About the Role
This role is based in Hamilton, and we are willing to support relocation.
Are you a passionate people leader ready to make a meaningful impact? Do you thrive on supporting high-performing teams, building strong relationships, and shaping future-focused programmes?
We are seeking a Team Manager to lead our Physiotherapy programme within Wintec’s Centre for Health and Social Practice. In this role, you will guide and support a collaborative team, foster an inclusive and culturally responsive environment, and ensure our ākonga are equipped with the skills, knowledge, and mindsets to succeed.
You will lead the delivery and ongoing development of programmes, including flexible, online, and distance-based learning, ensuring they remain innovative, responsive, and aligned with the needs of ākonga and industry. You will also bring a strategic lens, contributing to the future direction of the programme and holding a clear vision for the evolution of physiotherapy within Aotearoa New Zealand.
Working across our organisation and with external stakeholders, you will strengthen partnerships and ensure our programmes remain relevant, future-focused, and connected to community and sector needs.
A background in physiotherapy is advantageous, but we are equally interested in experienced allied health professionals or exceptional people leaders who bring a strong track record of team development, service delivery, and organisational impact.

Our ideal candidate is a people-focused leader who brings energy, insight, and a commitment to excellence. You will have:
- Proven experience in people leadership, team management, and fostering a positive, high-performing culture
- A background in allied health, education, or a related sector (physiotherapy experience is an advantage but not essential)
- Experience managing programme delivery, including exposure to flexible, online, or distance learning environments is desirable
- Strong strategic thinking skills, with the ability to shape and contribute to the future direction of programmes and the wider profession
- Strong relationship-building skills, with the ability to engage effectively with internal teams and external stakeholders
- Experience supporting teaching, learning, or service delivery environments, including quality improvement and workforce development
- A commitment to culturally responsive practice, including an understanding of Mātauranga Māori and its application
- Excellent communication, coaching, and mentoring capabilities
Mō Mātou | Our team and culture
We are a passionate and supportive team that values collaboration, curiosity, and continuous learning. We enjoy working together, sharing ideas, and supporting each other through the challenges and successes of our work.
We challenge each other respectfully, celebrate our successes, and are committed to building a team culture where everyone can thrive.
