Clinical Manager

Clinical Manager | Permanent Full Time | 40 Hours (Mon–Fri) | Tauranga South

If you're a senior RN or Clinical Manager who prefers being out on the floor rather than behind a desk, this is the kind of role that will suit how you work.

At Bupa Accadia Manor, a 29-bed rest home, you’ll lead a small, stable team where your presence matters. This isn’t a large facility where you’re removed from care. You’ll be involved day-to-day, supporting medication rounds, guiding your team, and staying connected to residents and whānau.

Fridays start early with a 7am clinical focus, giving you time with your team during one of the most important parts of the day. The rest of the week follows a consistent Monday to Friday structure.

You’ll bring confidence across interRAI, audits, and care planning, but just as important is your ability to lead from the front. You’ll mentor RNs and Caregivers, step into clinical situations when needed, and maintain strong relationships with visiting health professionals.

This suits someone who values a smaller environment, knows their residents, and wants to keep their clinical skills active while leading a team.
