Your Opportunity Awaits:Are you a passionate Allied Health professional ready to take the next step in your leadership journey? Better Days in Auckland is looking for a dynamic Team Leader to guide and support our incredible team of clinicians. This is more than just a job—it’s a chance to make a meaningful impact while growing your career in a values-driven, people-first organisation.
Who We Are – Ko Wai Matou:
Better Days started with a simple vision: to provide better community-centred support services for people living with an injury or disability, and to be a better place to work for all team members by putting our clinicians at the front and centre of what we do.
Rachel Brimblecombe (OT) was working as a university lecturer when she grew disappointed with the disability services available to the community. She envisioned bringing together like-minded Allied Health professionals dedicated to providing the highest level of care. People who genuinely loved what they did and wanted to achieve outstanding results for clients.
Today Better Days remains owned and run by Allied Health professionals. This helps make all the difference and puts people first!
